Second Warsaw subway line construction completed

AGP Metro Polska has completed construction work on the second subway line in Warsaw and will now submit documentation necessary to obtain approvals, reports Polish Radio. Before passengers will be able to travel on the underground railway line, the contractor will have to obtain hundreds of approvals. The procedure is expected to take 37 days. AGP Metro Polska is an SPV created for the construction process by a consortium of Polish PBDiM, Italian Astaldi and Turkish Gülermak. The construction of the second line of Warsaw’s subway was launched in September 2010 and was originally scheduled to be completed in October 2013. Last year the contractor signed an agreement with city authorities, extending the deadline. The new line extends for six kilometers and has seven stations. It connects both banks of the Vistula river via a tunnel.
