The opening of the station "International" is not far off Bashny.Net

Underground construction workers finished last place centimeters to the future station "International" in St. Petersburg. In fact, the Frunze radius of the metro passed. However, the opening of the station would have to wait another two years. However, if we remember that before it metrostroevtsy went to the mid-90s, then there are not so many.

According to plans of the station "International" as the station "Bucharest" (Line 5, purple), will be launched in 2012. The station "International" appears at the intersection of Bela Kun and Bucharest. Station "Bucharest" will be opened near the intersection of streets and Salov Bucharest.

One of the most long-suffering of underground construction projects of the last two decades is coming to an end. October 6 metrostroevtsy passed last centimeter of the tunnel between stations "Volkovskaya" and "International". However, contrary to the expectations of journalists, the painting "The meeting on the Elbe" did not happen because no one had come to the station board did not come out and hand hard worker "on this side" is not pressed. In small "windows" tunneling system only periodically flashed white helmet operator who even exchanged a few words with the staff of the seventeenth management "Metrostroi."



Not the biggest segment of the tunnel (a little more than 1,200 meters) metrostroiteli developed for a long time. When possible speed to half a kilometer in the last month as the head of "Metrostroi" Vadim Alexandrov, the day is just about 10 meters. The reason for this, according to Alexandrov one: lack of funding. So far, begun in 1996, the year a portion of the Frunze radius idle, it has always been necessary to financially "feed" - to pump water, provide ventilation and to carry out work to improve the soil.



In recent years, the city managed to allocate sufficient funds for work on "sboyka" (ie - connection) distillation and station tunnels. It should be recalled that for several years the federal money for the construction of the St. Petersburg subway is not allocated. However, as assured metrostroevtsev vice-governor Yury Molchanov, who oversees, including and transport complex, the city will not leave the subway without finance and the budget for next year, as well as the forecast budget for three years, laid a sufficient sum in time to complete all ongoing projects. According to Molchanov, the city concrete plans: a year for the new station. In the near future on the line after the "Bypass Canal," "Admiralty", "Sport-2" residential lobby "Saviour."



After tunneling between stations metrostroevtsy can fully engage putemontazhnymi work in parallel on the station completed excavation of the third working dead-end tunnel - in these tunnels, the train takes place at the end in the opposite direction. By December of this year at the "International" must be completely built right and left station tunnels, as well as an average room of the station. Already see the outlines of the future underground vestibule.



Work is underway on the ground, although the part is difficult to say that there is constructed an upper lobby. To see how things work, you still have to go down a few meters. And then you can see - built solid walls and the edge of platform ends abruptly muzzle of a 120-meter oblique stroke.



Work on the "International" are conducted around the clock, both underground and on the surface. The station is to be opened in 2012. Up to this point at the Frunze radius in December 2010 will be put into operation "Bypass the channel." At the corner of Ligovsky work just four crane erected the structure of the future building, which will be inscribed in the station lobby. However, from the land of builders are not yet risen above the second floor. So, rather all, the station will be opened - the governor made it clear that to delay the deadlines will not allow - but just above the subway is still some time will work.
