BAKU, Azerbaijan, January 29. The development
scenarios of the metro were analyzed and the most optimal scenario
was selected by simulation, the Chairman of the Board of the
Azerbaijan Land Transport Agency Anar Rzayev said, speaking at a
meeting dedicated to transport issues, Trend reports.
“Even after the roads are built, it is not possible for buses
alone to carry out all this transportation. Because the demand is
very high and it is also very important to expand the services of
carriers. Here, the development scenarios of the metro were
analyzed and the most optimal scenario was selected by simulation.
It has been reported to you that 10 new stations will be built and
four stations will be connected. These 10 stations are the
extension of the “Purple Line” to Babak Avenue and the “Green Line”
to the “Hazi Aslanov” metro station. I would like to note that the
extension of the “Purple Line” will also expand the use of the
“Avtovagzal” and “Khojasan” metro stations and will once again
significantly reduce the pressure on the 20 January metro station
and that roundabout.
The extension of the “Green Line” from “Hazi Aslanov” will
benefit thousands of citizens who use the city center to travel to
and from the shopping center in Khojasan on a daily basis. This
will once again lead to a decrease in traffic in the city center.
As a result of the implementation of these projects, it will be
possible to transport another 88 million passengers by metro per
year. The metro will carry out transportation within the city,” he
said.
