Bogotá unveils preliminary design for metro expansion
Bogotá’s mobility department unveiled a preliminary design for the expansion of the city’s metro system, dubbed line No. 2, instead of an extension of line No. 1 that is under construction.
The new 15.8km line would start at the Calle 72 station of line 1 and end at Suba avenue, near the Bogotá river, Metro de Bogotá’s CEO Leonidas Narváez said during a public audience.
The preliminary design involves 11 or 12 stations on line 2, as well as a new 20ha trainyard. Operations should start in 2030 and benefit 76,000 passengers during rush hour.
The city government aims to start feasibility studies this year, while a financing agreement is expected for 2022 and the tender for construction could be launched in 2023.
