Moscow Metro in 2047.



Recently I found a really cool map, which is a proposed Plan of Moscow Metro for 2047 the year than Moscow will celebrate its 900 birthday. Certain things I found interesting, if I still was were, I would have to wait another 30 something years ( 37, to be exact) in order for Moscow Metro to reach my beloved Yuzhnoe Izmailovo. Chelybinskaya station would be build on a corner of Chelyabinskaya and Mali Kupavenski proezd , right next to SHVD (ШВД) ( my former Земляки would not need explanations, but for others SHVD is School #689 in Yuzhnoe Izmailovo ( first school in a district which was build in 1978) ). You would think Chelyabinskaya would be a last stop on its metro line, you are wrong the line would go far beyond the MKAD ( Moscow beltway, unofficial Moscow border). Moscow metro extensively would spread outside of city proper. Pervomayskaya is not going to be a part Blue Line anymore and Shelkovskaya becomes the extension of red line, something what we were waiting patiently back in `80s. It could take our trip from Izmailovo to Sokolniki mach shorter and faster. If you are fan of Moscow metro you would really enjoy this map.
