Entrance to Streshnevo station. Moscow Central Circle

In the Riga direction of commuter trains, construction has begun on a new Leningradskaya platform, shifted to the Moscow Central Circle. Upon completion of construction, it will be possible to get to the MCC via a convenient covered walkway in a few minutes. But at the same time, "Leningradskaya" moves away from the "Voikovskaya" metro station, where passengers from the Riga direction transfer to go to the center. RG investigated why the city is building a transfer from the railway to the MCC to the detriment of a transfer to the metro.

Let me remind you that in Moscow a program is currently being implemented to integrate MCC stations with suburban railway lines. After its completion, traveling by train to the city will become much more convenient. Transfers will appear in almost all radii. Stations everywhere are being “pulled up” to each other, making convenient transport hubs, or new stations are being built where possible.

A unique situation has developed with Leningradskaya. From the Riga direction there is already a relatively convenient transfer - a little more than 400 meters - to the Voikovskaya metro station. Fifteen minutes - and passengers of the Riga direction are at "Belorusskaya", another five - at "Teatralnaya" near the Kremlin. After moving the platform, it will be about 300 meters farther to the metro, but it will be only 90 meters to the MCC via a warm passage. But not everyone needs a ring. “Why do I need the MCC, from which I can only go to the periphery?” Anastasia Mashkova from Krasnogorsk is perplexed. - “All my roads go to the center.”

“Think about retired summer residents,” echoes Alexey Mayorov, who has a summer house in Istra. “For them, an additional 300 meters with heavy bags is not an idle stroll.” The difficulty of Leningradskaya is that between it and the next station in the Riga direction, Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo, there are only a couple of kilometers. “If you add another station between them, the train will not have enough space to accelerate and slow down between the two platforms; it will have to go slowly, and this will greatly affect the throughput of the section. It will not be a huge electric train more than 200 meters long that will have to run here, but a tram,” they explain in Russian Railways.

As a result, until the last moment, transport workers could not decide how exactly to integrate the Riga direction with the MCC. And passengers learned about the upcoming plans after the fact - when workers went to the construction site this winter.

Now the first platform is almost ready. "Railroad workers, together with colleagues from specialized structures in Moscow, were looking for the most best option. And we came to the decision to move the Leningradskaya stopping point on the Riga direction 200 meters towards the MCC with the construction of two coastal passenger platforms,” commented the Moscow Railway. “This design solution allows us to maintain the existing connection of the Leningradskaya platform with the Voikovskaya metro station.” , slightly increasing the distance to the metro, and will also provide a convenient transfer to the Streshnevo MCC station. In addition, the transport situation for local residents will improve. Residents of Svetly Proezd will have a direct route to Voikovskaya, and residents of Radiatornye Streets and Voikovskie Proezd will have access to the Streshnevo station. Now, in fact, the Voikovsky district is cut by railway rails and fences, and after construction a convenient bridge will appear over them.”

Now you can get to Streshnevo from Leningradskaya only through Leningradsky Prospekt - it’s about 1.5 km on foot.

According to forecasts of the capital's Department of Transport, passenger traffic on Streshnevo will double after the transfer - now there are 4.3 thousand passengers per day, after completion of construction 7.9 thousand are expected.

The increase is expected due to passengers from Leningradskaya and local residents - now, according to the Central Suburban Passenger Company, about 8 thousand people pass through the station every day. The remaining 4 thousand will have to walk a little longer to the metro or take buses. The Department of Transport promises to review the bus route in the area after the transfer is completed.

How is the construction of interchanges on the MCC progressing July 7th, 2017

It has been almost 10 months since passenger service on the Moscow Central Circle was launched. During this time, the ring has transported more than 65 million passengers, and the monthly passenger flow exceeds 360 thousand passengers per day. Meanwhile, the launch of passenger service as such is only the first stage in the development of the project. It is followed by two more: integration of the MCC with the radial directions of the Moscow Railway (stage 2) and development of adjacent territories (stage 3). It is precisely the second stage that we will talk about today. Let's see how the construction of interchange hubs is being carried out at the intersections of the MCC with other railway directions.

Let's start with the Paveletsky direction
Here, in order to integrate with the MCC and organize a transfer to the Verkhnie Kotly station (I still want to complain about the complete topological illiteracy of the person who came up with such a name), a new stopping point is being built.

The project provides for the construction of two island passenger platforms, which will allow trains traveling along all main tracks to stop. It will be possible to schedule a stop here for Aeroexpress trains heading to Domodedovo Airport and for suburban express trains.

The object is very large-scale; some of the platforms will be placed on overpasses, which requires their complete reconstruction. The axes of the main paths will also shift. The construction of retaining walls is currently being completed.

Next direction - Riga
Initially, the project for integrating the Riga direction with the MCC provided for the relocation of the Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo platform to organize an interchange hub. But later, under pressure from the Moskomarkhitektura, another decision was made: to leave the Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo in place, and to transfer the Leningradskaya platform to the MCC.

It's too late to say now, but this decision is a worsening condition for tens of thousands of passengers who use this platform every day (our opinion only). Existing location platform allows you to use it to transfer to the Voikovskaya metro station (although this is not the most convenient transfer, but still), plus, in addition, stops for ground urban passenger transport are located nearby. Moving the platform will lengthen the route from the platform to the metro by 140 meters (from 400m to 530m). In addition, if previously the transfer route was obvious and passed along the sidewalks of the main Leningradsky Prospekt, then after the platform is moved, the route to the metro will pass through 2nd Voykovsky Proezd, which is more of a courtyard passage than part of the transfer hub.

However, construction is already underway full swing. It is planned to build two side platforms with two vestibules. The western vestibule of the platform will be directly adjacent to both the northern end of the MCC Streshnevo station, thereby forming an interchange connection. The eastern vestibule of the platform will provide access in the direction of the metro and Leningradskoye Shosse.

The next direction for our inspection is Savelovskoe
Despite the fact that the existing Okruzhnaya platform is already quite conveniently located for transferring to the MCC, a decision was made to build new platforms, also on overpasses. This decision was dictated by the need to bring the railway tracks onto the overpass, because below it is planned to pass the North-Western and North-East Expressway.

After completion of construction, all transplants will be carried out entirely in a warm circuit.

Yaroslavl direction
Here, as part of integration with the MCC, work is underway to move the Severyanin stop closer to the Rostokino station. It must be said that the platform transfer project repeatedly moved from one title of work to another, as a result of which it did not fit well with neighboring projects. Although work on the construction of the platform began in the fall, in the spring part of the constructed platform had to be dismantled, because its location turned out to be within the clearance of one of the main tracks, the relocation of which is planned in connection with the laying of the V main track.

Another difficulty of this transport hub is the passage of the North-Eastern Expressway and the interchange with the Yaroslavl Highway near it. Thus, in one of the latest proposals for routing, the road designers threw out the groundwork for the western vestibule of the Rostokino station (designed with access to Prospekt Mira). Of course, this is an unacceptable solution: the western vestibule is absolutely necessary to organize convenient interchange connections with transport running along Prospekt Mira, especially in light of the fact that the new location of the Severyanin platform will somewhat distance it from the existing interchange connections with ground transport stops.

Gorky direction
The construction of the Karacharovo transport hub continues here, which in the future should become one of the largest in Moscow. It is planned to include: the Nizhegorodskaya MCC station, two metro stations and the Karacharovo platform of the Gorky direction, which will be moved closer to the Moscow Ring Railway. In the future, in the Gorky direction it is planned to organize the so-called. “zone station”, when part of the train routes will not go to the center to the station, but will end here. This is at least very controversial decision, which goes against global trends in the development of intracity rail transport, when commuter trains, on the contrary, are made as transit as possible in order to create, in fact, a second circuit of off-street transport.

And finally, transfer to the Kursk direction. Near the Novokhokhlovskaya MCC station, work has already begun on the construction of a new stopping point in the radial direction. It is planned that the new platform will have an island platform connected in a warm circuit to the lobby of the MCC station.

Of course, integration with radial railway lines is only part of the 2nd stage of the MCC development. In addition, a decision has now been made to build additional vestibules at the following stations: “Lokomotiv”, “ZIL” and “Botanical Garden”. The issue of building second vestibules at the Vladykino and Baltiyskaya stops is being considered. Practice shows that it is the lobbies that are the bottleneck that limits throughput Moscow Central Circle: most lobbies use escalators of reduced width (80 cm versus the standard 100 cm in the metro), this does not allow two passengers to fully stand on a step, or use left side for passage, which significantly reduces throughput.

Have you already tried the MCC in a year? Will new transplants make the ring more comfortable for you?


Near the building of the Russian Geological Fund there is a small exhibition of stones

Near the railway tracks there is a small open section of the Tarakanovka River, which in the old days was not yet polluted with industrial waste. In the 18th century, five dams were built along the river, and in the resulting ponds local residents were fishing. Behind residential buildings Large-scale construction of the Third Interchange Circuit of the metro has begun.

At the intersection of Khoroshevskoye Highway and Sorge Street, a monument to the Soviet intelligence officer was erected. In 1929, Richard Sorge began collaborating with the Intelligence Directorate of the Red Army and was soon sent to Japan. Most often, the name of the intelligence officer, who worked under the pseudonym Ramsay, is mentioned in connection with the preparation of the invasion of Nazi Germany in the USSR. Japan was an ally of Germany and valuable information about preparations for war came here. Thanks to Sorge’s professionalism, secret information was transmitted in code to Moscow. In particular, Ramsay reported Japan's reluctance to participate in the war against Soviet Union, which allowed Headquarters in the fall of 1941 to transfer fresh and well-trained Siberian divisions to the defense of Moscow.

In October 1941, Sorge was arrested by the Japanese police and sentenced by the court to death penalty. At the end of the war, documents from the Japanese intelligence services about the activities of Sorge and his station fell into the hands of the Americans and became public. In the USSR, the first publications about the feat of Richard Sorge appeared in 1964 and he was awarded the title of Hero of the Soviet Union (posthumously).

The name of Richard Sorge is immortalized in the name of the next MCC station (the original version was “Novopeschanaya”), which was somewhat late in opening. During the first month of operation of the ring, trains pass by without stopping.


One of the branches of the Moscow District, laid along Berzarina Street, and on the People's Militia there seems to still be a railway crossing.

Sorge Street can be roughly divided in two: the even side consists of residential areas of panel and brick houses, and the odd side, along the railway, is occupied by garages, car repair shops, car washes, and dealership centers. A pedestrian bridge will be built for passengers from Sorge Street to the MCC station.


Among the Stalin buildings, decorated with “architectural excesses,” we came across the unkempt facade of the Research Institute “Medstatistics”

On the odd side of Sorge Street along the railway there is a lot of space that is slowly being developed for residential and office development. Graffiti will tell you what goods and services are available.

The same building, which can only be identified by the inscription on the facade. 1987: https://pastvu.com/p/27622 (not preserved)

These places are directly related to the history of the Moscow Circular Railway - historian Yuri Egorov talks about this on the Archnadzor website http://www.archnadzor.ru/2016/09/05/voennoe-pole/: the Sorge station “is located exactly on the site of the Military Field stopping point that existed here, built together with the Okrug Railway in 1905–1907. The name Military Field is an old Moscow toponym that existed in this place for many decades. Part of the vast Khodynka field along the current Circular Railway since mid-19th For centuries, military camps were occupied here - infantry, artillery, cadet schools, several Cossacks and others. In addition to the camps themselves, that is, the barracks, there were training grounds and even shooting ranges, including a “rifle shaft” for training artillerymen.

To service military camps and conveniently transport soldiers to them, a stopping point was built, which was called the Military Field. If necessary, access roads from the camps could easily be connected to it - all the buildings and structures needed for this were built in advance, along with the rest of the road. Military camps were located here until the end of the 1950s; now this place is occupied by residential areas.

The author of the buildings on the Military Field was the chief architect of the District Railway, the famous Alexander Pomerantsev: it is his signature that appears on the surviving historical drawings. The building of the Voyennoye Pole station was outstanding not only among the Okruzhnaya buildings - it was one of the most interesting Moscow stations with a bright and unusual architectural design. The building was a complex multi-volume composition of variable height and number of storeys, with rich and varied decor and was associated primarily with a fairy-tale tower. The entrance to the building from the city side was made in the form of a porch with a hipped roof and a spire crowning it, with elegant pilasters. Unfortunately, Military Field is one of the few places on the Ring Road where historical buildings have been completely lost.”

Immediately behind the Sandy overpass is the Panfilovskaya MCC station (the original version was Khodynka), named after Panfilov Street, which runs parallel. Ivan Panfilov was a veteran of the First World War, during the Civil War he fought in the Chapaev division, and in the fall of 1941, already with the rank of major general, he held the defense on the outskirts of Moscow. His 316th rifle division, staffed mainly by soldiers drafted from the Kazakh and Kyrgyz SSR, turned out to be one of the most combat-ready thanks to good training in exercises and Panfilov’s tactics. He used a system of deeply layered artillery anti-tank defense and mobile barrage detachments. Defeated German general Erich Gepner called Panfilov's men "a savage division, fighting in violation of all regulations and rules of combat, whose soldiers do not surrender, are extremely fanatical and are not afraid of death." Ivan Panfilov died under mortar fire near Volokolamsk in November 1941.

Panfilovskaya is one of the five MCC stations that opened late

Hidden behind the brick houses of Panfilov Street is Sokol, Moscow’s first cooperative residential community, founded in 1923. The Sokol partnership included employees of the People's Commissariats, economists, artists, teachers, agronomists, and technical intelligentsia. The share payments were quite high; it’s nice to have a house in a village on the outskirts of the capital, but it’s expensive.

The houses on an area of ​​21 hectares were built according to individual designs by architects Nikolai Markovnikov, brothers Alexander, Victor and Leonid Vesnin, Ivan Kondakov, Alexey Shchusev. Each plot accounted for approximately nine acres. By the beginning of the 1930s, 114 residential buildings, two grocery stores, a kindergarten, a canteen and a library had been built. The village streets were named after Russian painters, which gave rise to the unofficial name - Village of Artists.

Since 1936, as part of the concept of building workers’ towns, apartment buildings, diluting the colorful rustic nature. Now the village is completely losing its uniqueness: the owners are actively demolishing old wooden buildings, erecting modern haciendas to their taste.


Fence of the MSUPP dormitory

One of the exits of the Panfilovskaya station is oriented towards Marshal Rybalko Street, where a large cream “cake” with icing and a tower candle appeared on the site of the former armored repair plant of the Ministry of Defense - the Marshal residential complex, designed by architect Mikhail Filippov. What remained from the enterprise were the rich gates and the T-34-85 tank, installed on the factory territory on May 9, 1985 and moved to the park near the Yunost cinema (the cinema operates on the first floor of a residential building built in 1955).

The decoration of these places is the ensemble of the junction railway station of the Serebryany Bor Moscow Railway: a passenger building (architect Alexander Pomerantsev), a luggage compartment, a track barracks, a guardhouse and two switch posts. The station contained passenger halls of classes I, II and III, the station master's office, and a telegraph office. Residential buildings of the 2nd and 3rd types for employees and small buildings have not survived. The station was named after the centuries-old pine forest, which in the old days bore the name Serebryany Bor, and later the Great All Saints Grove. It was from here that on July 19, 1908, a festive train with an official delegation departed, opening regular traffic on the Moscow Railway.

A list of all station objects is known: passenger platforms, passenger building, baggage room, latrine, kerosene cellar, garbage pit, fire shed, central control booths, water-lifting building, reservoir building, residential building type No. 2, residential building type No. 3 , a barracks, three guard houses, freight platforms and a warehouse, a goods office and a weighing platform, wells, switch boxes.

On the opposite side of the Serebryany Bor station there was a food point for feeding soldiers from military trains, designed for 1,200 people. The point included: a dining room, a kitchen, an icehouse, a pantry with a cellar, a shed for firewood, a latrine, a cesspool, a house for the team, and a commandant's house with services.

Next year, the Karacharovo stop on the Gorky direction of the Moscow Railway (MZD) will be moved half a kilometer to the Moscow Central Circle (MCC). There will be a convenient transfer from the railway to the Nizhegorodskaya MCC station. The press service of the Ministry of Railways reported this.

The new Karacharovo station will replace the existing railway stop of the same name. Transferring from commuter trains to Lastochki will take only a few minutes. At the same time, passengers will not need to go outside; the crossing will be built according to the “dry feet” principle. Currently, railway workers are building an underground pedestrian crossing and platform. In total, three passenger platforms, six through tracks and two dead-end tracks will be built at the station.

Every day, 187 thousand people use electric trains in the Gorky direction. The busiest station on the route is Moscow-Kurskaya. 50 thousand people pass through the turnstiles of the Gorky dead-end streets at the Kursky railway station every day. The second largest passenger traffic is Zheleznodorozhnaya station. It is used by 35 thousand people per day. The remaining stations handle an average of 11 thousand people.

A quick transfer from the train to the MCC will relieve congestion at the central metro stations - Kurskaya on the Circle Line, Kurskaya on the Arbatsko-Pokrovskaya Line and Chkalovskaya on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line. Passengers will not have to go to Kursky Station to change to the metro.

In addition, JSC Russian Railways plans to make the Karacharovo station the initial and final destination for some commuter trains. This measure will reduce the passenger flow of the Kursk station, as well as increase the railway capacity on the section from the Moscow-Kurskaya station to the Karacharovo station. It is this section that is now the busiest, since the Kursky station also receives passengers from the Kursk direction of the Moscow Railway and through commuter trains from the Riga and Belorussian directions.

From the Karacharovo platform it will be possible to transfer not only to the MCC, but also to a new radial line - Kozhukhovskaya, which the capital authorities promise to build next year. From the railway it will be possible to go underground to the Nizhegorodskaya Street station, from which the metro train will take you to the Nekrasovka station on the outskirts of Moscow in the Nekrasovka district.

By the way, passengers will be able to transfer to one more station - Nizhegorodskaya Street, located on the Third Interchange Circuit. It should also be built in 2018.

Thus, in 2018, in the area of ​​Ryazanskaya Prospekt in the south-east of Moscow, the largest transport hub will appear, connecting commuter trains, the MCC and metro stations.

Yaroslavl direction

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

The Severyanin station of the Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway will be closer to the MCC in the new year. The suburban platform will be moved 600 m to Rostokino station. The distance will be reduced from 620 to 20 m. An underground pedestrian crossing will connect the two stations. Three passenger platforms will be built at the station.

The new comfortable transfer will reduce the load on the Yaroslavsky railway station and the Komsomolskaya metro station. More than 97 thousand people come to Yaroslavsky Station on commuter trains every day. Passenger traffic on the Yaroslavl route is almost 450 thousand. person per day.

The launch of traffic along the MCC in 2016 reduced the load on the Komsomolskaya metro station by a quarter. The approach of the railway platform to the MCC will make the most popular metro station even freer. According to Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin, passenger traffic at the Rostokino MCC station during rush hour could reach 37 thousand people.

Riga direction

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

To transfer passengers on the Riga direction of the Moscow Railway, a new station is being built - Leningradskaya. The integration of the Streshnevo MCC station and the railway will take place next year. The stations will be united by a covered walkway, and in order for residents of nearby areas to use the ring road, a pedestrian bridges on each side of the stopping point.

Now, in order to get from Leningradskaya to the second ring of the metro, you have to cover a 1.5 km path on foot and enter the station only through Leningradsky Prospekt. Passenger traffic after moving the platform will increase approximately 2 times - from 4.3 thousand people to 7.9 thousand.

Savelovskoe direction

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

The Okruzhnaya station of the Savelovsky direction of the Moscow Railway will be built on a railway overpass. The distance between the Okruzhnaya MCC station and the commuter train stop will be reduced from 260 to 50 m. The transfer will be quick and warm.

Those who need to go to the center will be able to take the elevator underground to the Okruzhnaya station on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya line. The new station will open for traffic at the end of this year. It will be a continuation of the light green line from the Petrovsko-Razumovskaya metro station. All three "Districts" will be connected by elevators and escalators.

Paveletskaya direction

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

The Paveletskaya direction of the Moscow Railway and the Verkhnie Kotly station of the MCC will be connected by the new Varshavskaya platform at the end of 2018. According to Marat Khusnullin, to integrate the railway and metro, it is planned to build a platform with a turnstile and cash register terminal, build tracks, and modernize the railway infrastructure.

The passenger transfer will reduce the load on the Paveletskaya and Nagatinskaya metro stations. The predicted passenger flow of the new hub will be about 18 thousand people during rush hour. Now, in order to transfer to the MCC, passengers in the Paveletsky direction walk approximately 1.2 km from the Nizhnie Kotly station. Their path passes along the Warsaw highway.

Kursk direction

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

Finally next year It is planned to combine the Novokhokhlovskaya MCC station and the Kursk direction station of the Moscow Railway with a covered walkway. The railway station is to be built within a year. After this, when transferring from one station to another, passengers will have “dry feet.” In the meantime, those who decide to transfer from the Kalitniki station of the Kursk direction of the Moscow Railway to the Novokhokhlovskaya MCC station have to travel one and a half kilometers along an unimproved road.

NATI station of the Oktyabrskaya railway

Photo: portal Moscow 24/Alexander Avilov

The NATI station of the Oktyabrskaya Railway will not be moved closer to the MCC. Passengers walk from the commuter train to the Likhobory station on the MCC for about six minutes. True, construction is currently underway here, the roadbed of the northern section of the North-Eastern Expressway is being built. And in a year, an above-ground covered pedestrian crossing will be built to transfer pedestrians.

We built it for you
Extra time

The Moscow Central Circle is part of the transport system of the future capital.
It gives the city an alternative to choosing new routes, reduces the load on the metro and train stations in the city center and makes a trip around Moscow an average 20 minutes Briefly speaking.

About the MCC project

The city train is a new type of public transport that appeared in the capital on September 10, 2016 with the opening of the Moscow Central Circle (MCC).

New generation Lastochka trains run along the railway ring during metro operation. You won’t have to wait more than 6 minutes for an electric train during rush hours, and you can change to the metro for free - the MCC has the same pass as the metro.

Marat Khusnullin, Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction:

The launch of traffic on the Moscow Central Circle is a breakthrough project for the capital. MCC will be built in the city new system transport logistics. There will be a redistribution of transit flows from the center to the middle part of the city, adjacent territories will become more accessible, passenger traffic in the metro will decrease and roads will be partially cleared.
The load on the main metro lines, primarily the Circle Line and central interchange stations, will be reduced by more than 15%.

You can pay for your ticket at the ticket office at any MCC station by bank card.
In the future, it is planned to introduce modern fare payment technologies: NFC (fare payment using mobile phone), Pay Pass / Pay Wave ( contactless payment bank card).

"Without the sound of wheels"

Fast “Swallows” reach speeds of up to 160 km/h, but at the same time do not cause “noisy inconvenience” to citizens.

All electrified rolling stock is noticeably quieter than diesel locomotives and meets modern environmental requirements.

Protective screens will protect citizens from unnecessary noise
and the creation of the so-called “velvet road” - without the sound of wheels.

This technology involves laying railway tracks using special technology in separate 800-meter sections.

Why will the city train become a popular mode of transport among Muscovites?

A trip along the MCC will be many times more comfortable than in the metro. 110 “swallows” ply along the railway ring, each designed for 1,200 people.

New generation city electric trains are equipped with

Security on the MCC

Rail transport traditionally remains one of the most dangerous in the world. However, emergency situations do not occur with trains, but with inattentive passengers who step onto the rails in prohibited places.
A fence has been installed along the entire perimeter of the MCC, which will prevent unauthorized access to the railway tracks.

The total length of the fence was 108 km

Part of the fence (16 km) are noise barriers that were installed within the boundaries of residential buildings.

Free pass
– does NOT mean uncontrolled

On the Moscow Central Circle, all transport security measures applied in the metro and railway are implemented. For example, profiling will also be carried out here.

Profiling

This method evaluates and predicts human behavior based on the analysis of characteristics of appearance, non-verbal and verbal behavior.
There will also be a traditional search like in the subway. Increased passenger protection will be ensured by modern system turnstiles, detector frames and CCTV, as well as through the creation of a separate police unit.

Transport hubs

It will be possible to change from one type of transport to another in a matter of minutes using transport interchange hubs (TPU). They consist of terminals with ticket offices and turnstiles, as well as a system of covered pedestrian galleries - overhead and underground passages that protect passengers from bad weather.

  • 17

  • 10

All stations provide a transfer to city public transport

buses, trams, trolleybuses and autolines

Passengers don’t even have to go outside, which is why this type of transfer is called the “principle” dry feet».

Now ground urban transport brings citizens directly to the ring stations

In the future, transport hubs will become multifunctional: they will include offices, shopping malls, shops and cafes. Investors will invest money in the construction of the commercial part; the city, using funds from the Moscow budget, is building only the technological part of the hub, which performs a transport function. This concept meets the interests of investors, for whom it is important to recoup their investments in construction, and the needs of citizens, who will be able to find work or receive necessary services close to home.

In the future, some long-distance trains will be able to disembark passengers before reaching the station. By using the MCC, people will be able to save their time, and train stations in the center of Moscow will become freer.

Parking and rides

There will also be an increase in passengers on the MCC due to some motorists who will choose “traffic-free” movement around the city on rail transport. This will relieve some of the load from overcrowded city highways.

You will be able to park your car in park-and-ride parking lots near 17 stations Moscow Central Circle. They are ready to accept 2 thousand cars.

These parking lots will operate in the same mode as intercept parking lots at metro stations, of which there are 31 (capacity - 6.6 thousand cars). The largest of them, for 1.48 thousand cars, is located at the Annino metro station.

The Moscow Central Circle will breathe life into abandoned areas around

For 90 years, the district railway was used for the delivery of goods.

During the USSR, the necessary load was provided to it by municipal and industrial enterprises located around. But gradually production declined, and these days these sites are best case scenario are used for warehouses, and more often they are simply idle.

MCC is a unique project not only from a development point of view transport infrastructure, but also from the point of view of creating new jobs.

After the introduction of new real estate in the area of ​​the MCC stations, about 40 thousand jobs will be created.

Investors have already expressed their readiness to invest in the development of areas around 11 MCC stations. Among them:

"Botanical Garden"

"Vladykino"

"Yaroslavskaya"

"Open Highway"

"Novokhokhlovskaya"

"ZIL"

"Warsaw highway"

"Business center"

"Shelepikha"

"Novopeschanaya"

"Nikolaevskaya"

Attracting private investment will allow Moscow to save budget money and direct it to the development of social and transport infrastructure in other areas of the city.

Former industrial zones will turn into new urban areas

Around the ring, according to calculations by the General Plan Institute, the following can be built:

750 thousand sq. m of commercial real estate.
Of them 300 thousand “squares”- hotels,
250 thousand - trading platforms,
200 thousand - new offices and technology parks.

Moscow has the right to expect that developers will be interested in investing in real estate construction, because after the launch of the MCC, the cost of land around it will increase significantly. The former industrial zones around the MCC fell into disrepair: these territories required integrated approach. And putting the lands around the railway ring in order became the largest urban improvement project in 2016. Every day, 25.9 thousand people were involved in the improvement of the MCC in the summer of 2016. However, the work was not aimed only at improving appearance stations, the task was also to create convenient pedestrian connections between the MCC and ground urban transport stops.

  • 2,800 trees were planted on the MCC.
  • Renovated facades 111 56 historical buildings. Near 11 stations view zones are created.

    The historical Kanatchikovo station on the MCC will not open to passengers, but will become an interesting excursion site.

    Two residential buildings, a gatehouse, a centralization booth and a warehouse have also been preserved. The Kanatchikovo station has adorned the Moscow Central Circle, being of value to anyone interested in the history of Moscow railways and urban architecture.

    This decision is due to the low passenger traffic in this area. "Kanatchikovo" is located between the stops "Krymskaya" and "Ploshchad Gagarina" parallel to Kanatchikovsky Proezd. The two-story station building from the early 20th century is a cultural heritage site.

    History of the creation of the MCC

    In 2018, the Moscow Central Circle will celebrate a unique anniversary: ​​Emperor Nicholas II made the decision to build the Circular Railway in Moscow in the fall of 1897.

    The initiator of the project was a great enthusiast of railway transport, the Minister of Finance Russian Empire Sergei Witte. District Railway was of great national importance, so the best Russian engineers and architects were involved in the project.

    For 110 years, the MCC’s mission has not changed: saving passengers’ time.

On 50 versts (54 km) was built
14 stations

2
stopping points

30
overpasses

72 bridges
(of which 4 are through
Moscow River)

35 pairs of trains ran along the district per day. Passenger transportation on the MCC did not last long; they were stopped due to unprofitability. For more than a century, the railway ring was used only for the transport of goods and served the industrial areas around it.

The idea of ​​restoring passenger traffic never left Moscow city planners, but work began only in 2012.
It was necessary to completely update the infrastructure: electrify the road, reposition the rails and, most importantly, reconstruct eight overpasses at the intersection with highways in order to raise them to a height that would allow new trains to pass through.

The first passengers traveled along the district on September 10, 2016. On the eve of this event, the road was given a new name - the Moscow Central Circle (MCC).
