Mtsk station diagram with time. Moscow Central Circle - metro station map

Interactive map of the Moscow Metro.

We promptly update our metro map, add all the Metro and Moscow Central Circle (MCC) stations that are being commissioned, mark those closed for a long period, and also plan to reflect (both on the map and in the calculations) temporary closures of metro sections, which are often carried out along on days off.

How to find the right station on the metro map:

• on the left is an index of all stations along the lines(optional - lines are highlighted on the diagram)
• follow the link “all stations” - index of metro stations alphabetically
• on the right - search form by name(you can enter the name incompletely)

When a station is selected using one of these methods, or directly on the metro map - a dialog appears, marking the location of the station on the metro map and containing:

• name of station and line to which it belongs (this will help distinguish stations of the same name)
• link “Details about the station”. By clicking on it, you will find out the operating schedule and interval of the current station, the location of its exits on a large-scale map of Moscow, ground transport routes to other transport hubs of the city, what infrastructure facilities are nearby, and other background information.
• list of buses, trolleybuses, trams— whose stops are located at the metro exits (each number is also a link to a separate page with a map and list of stops)
• buttons for building a route In the underground - From or Before this station

To calculate metro travel use these buttons, or enter station names in the form fields at the top left of the page (you can enter incomplete names).

Calculation will start automatically, as soon as both stations are clearly selected. If you typed the name manually and did not use auto-completion, use the button next to the form to start the calculation.

Calculation result - optimal route in terms of time and number of transfers. He stands out on the diagram, and on the left side of the page is displayed route plan.

Left button " Option 2" is displayed if an alternative route is found that is equal or slightly inferior to the first one. Sometimes one option will take longer, but it will have fewer transitions. This is convenient for passengers with heavy luggage.

If there is a direct bus or trolleybus route between selected stations, we will offer it after the route plan.

Start over button will clear the selection and route plan. In order to save link to calculate between two current stations, copy it from the address bar (or add the page to your “Favorites”) of your browser before clicking this button.

Please note that the time required to descend to the platform/exit to the surface, as well as waiting for the train, is not taken into account. Therefore, to the calculated value add 10-15 minutes so as not to disrupt your plans.

Train station icons our metro map is also interactive - they not only indicate the relative positions of metro and railway stations, but also provide the opportunity to quickly find out the train schedule for each station or platform, as well as view interactive diagrams of suburban traffic.

Airport icons mark the transfer points for Aeroexpress trains and ground transport heading to the capital's airports.

On September 10, 2016, the Moscow Central Circle will open for passengers in the capital. True, construction work on the new highway will continue after this date: according to the head of the transport department, Maxim Liksutov, some MCC stations will be completed after the start of work. Nevertheless, officials are seriously counting on the highway and hope that over the next two years it will become popular among citizens. In anticipation of the opening of the Central Circle, The Village answers the most popular questions about the new type of urban transport.

What is MCC?

The Moscow Central Ring (formerly known as the Moscow Ring Railway) is a new interchange circuit that should combine the metro and radial directions of suburban railways and greatly decongest the center of Moscow by removing transit passengers from it.

According to its designers, the launch of the route will relieve congestion in the metro by 15%, and the average travel time will decrease by 20 minutes (for example, travel time from the Leninsky Prospekt station to the Mezhdunarodnaya station will be reduced from half an hour to ten minutes). In other words, thanks to the MCC it will be possible to transfer from one metro or train line to another, bypassing the center. In addition, the MCC should partly solve the so-called “Vykhino” problem - a situation in which trains going to the center fill up immediately at the end metro stations. Electric train passengers coming from the Moscow region will be able to transfer to the new ring, and from there to metro lines and other suburban routes.

How did the idea for the project come about?

The creation of the MCC is actually not a revolutionary idea. In most Western megacities, the metro and train are not separated and are one and the same transport: this practice allows passengers to move around the city much faster and easier. The designers of the ring themselves cite the example of Berlin, where the S-Bahn city train and the U-Bahn metro coexist within the same system.

The central ring was created on the basis of the Moscow Circular Railway, the decision to build which was made at the end of the 19th century on the initiative of the Minister of Finance of the Russian Empire, Sergei Witte. They built a ring around Moscow according to the design of engineer P. I. Rashevsky from 1903 to 1908. According to the original design, the route was supposed to have four tracks, which would be divided between goods and passenger traffic, but due to lack of funds, only two tracks were built. In 1930, passenger traffic was closed due to the development of buses and trams, and only freight trains began to operate around the ring.

The return of passenger traffic to the ring is not a new idea: they wanted to launch it back in the 60s, but this was prevented by the complexity of electrifying the ring. Yuri Luzhkov returned to this project again in the late 2000s, but reconstruction of the MCC began under Sobyanin in 2012. The ring was finally electrified, and a third track for freight traffic was also built. The total investments in the project, which was jointly carried out by Russian Railways and the Moscow government, exceeded 200 billion rubles, and 86 billion of them were provided by the federal budget.

Are the MCC and the Third Interchange Circuit the same thing?

No. The MCC is often called the third interchange circuit and the second ring of the Moscow Metro, but this is not so. The second ring metro line, 58 kilometers long, will appear in the capital by 2020, and this year its first section will open - from the Delovoy Tsentr station to Petrovsky Park. The new ring will also include the Kakhovskaya line, built in the late 1960s. If the MCC route, due to historical reasons, is shifted to the north, then the metro ring, on the contrary, will be shifted to the south. Thus, both lines will form a huge figure eight.

How will the MCC connect with other modes of transport?

In total, the MCC will have 31 stations (24 of them will be ready by September 10, the rest will be commissioned before 2018), each of which is planned to be connected to ground transport stops. In the first few months after the official launch of the ring, it will be possible to transfer to the metro at 14 stations, but then they promise to add this option at three more stops. Also, six MCC stations (later their number will increase to ten) will have transitions to commuter train stations.

The transfer time to the MCC will vary depending on the sections: the longest transition will be from the Voikovskaya metro station to the Streshnevo and Baltiyskaya stations - you will have to walk for 12 minutes, while the shortest one will take no more than three minutes. At 11 stations, builders promise to implement the “dry feet” principle: the crossings will be completely closed, which will allow people not to go outside. They promise to build a ground connection between the Volgogradsky Prospekt metro station and the Ugreshskaya platform.

How much will the trip cost?

Fares for travel on the central ring will be the same as in the metro. It will also be possible to use “United”, “Troika” and “90 minutes” tickets. All benefits that apply to metro travel will apply when using the MCC: special conditions for travel along the ring will be provided to people with disabilities, schoolchildren and students.

The number of transfers from the metro to the MCC and vice versa in one trip is not limited. The only condition is that you must make all transfers within 90 minutes. In the first month after the launch of the ring, passengers will have to reprogram the “United” ticket in order to make free trips and transfers to the MCC if it was purchased before September 1, 2016. This can be done at the ticket office of the subway or monorail. For those who use the Troika card, starting from September 1, it will be enough to put more than one ruble on the card.

In addition, passengers will be able to buy tickets at ring stations using both cash and cards. They also plan to introduce a contactless fare payment system, allowing payment using a mobile phone, and PayPass/PayWave, thanks to which money will be debited automatically if you tap a bank card on the validator.

What will the stations look like?

By the opening of the MCC, stations will be equipped with navigation panels in Russian and English. For visually impaired passengers, they promise to install tactile plates on lifts, stepless escalators and Braille. Also, at each station there will be information and boards showing the time of train arrival, and at five stations there will be “Live Communication” counters. In addition, about 70 mirrors, 470 trash cans, gadget charging points, umbrella packers and free toilets will be installed. Trees will be placed in tubs for decoration. Unlike the metro, the MCC will have turnstiles not only at the entrance, but also at the exit, and the platforms will be treated with anti-icing coating.

What trains will be on the MCC?

33 Lastochka trains (five cars each), which are produced at the Ural Locomotives plant in the city of Verkhnyaya Pyshma, Sverdlovsk Region, will run along the ring. The Lastochka prototype is a German electric train from Siemens AG, which served guests and participants of the Sochi Olympics. This summer there was a scandal: during a test drive, the electric train of the ED-4M series was too wide for the platform, but the Lastochka must fit into the dimensions of the track.

The maximum capacity of the Lastochka is 1,200 people, and the maximum speed is 120 kilometers per hour, but along the MCC trains will travel no faster than 40–50 kilometers per hour. The operating hours of the MCC are the same as those of the metro, but the interval of trains on the ring will be longer and will range from five minutes during rush hour to 15 minutes at other times. Now the Yandex.Maps service is preparing to update the metro application in order to inform passengers about the train schedule not only of the metro, but also of the Moscow Central Circle.

All Lastochkas have soft seats and climate control systems. Passengers will be able to use Wi-Fi and devices for charging gadgets. Each train will have toilets at the beginning and end of the train. Unlike ordinary electric trains, Lastochka cars do not have vestibules, but the double doors are wide enough for passengers with limited mobility to pass through.

Will it be possible to travel with strollers and bicycles?

Two of the five train cars (second and fourth) are equipped with bicycle racks. Each carriage can accommodate no more than six bicycles. The trains will also have space for strollers and other large carry-on luggage. Near each transport hub of the MCC they are going to build bicycle parking and bike sharing stations. Rentals are now available near the Delovoy Tsentr, Ploshchad Gagarina, Luzhniki, Botanical Garden and Vladykino stations.

How to navigate the roundabout?

On September 1, the Moscow government presented several detailed maps of the MCC, which indicate transfers from the Central Circle to ground and suburban transport, as well as on the metro line. The ring itself will be indicated as the 14th metro line.

The names of MCC stations either repeat the usual names of nearby metro stations (“Dubrovka”, “Vladykino”), or indicate the area in which they are located (“Gagarin Square”, “Luzhniki”). In the summer, on the website of the “Active Citizen” project, a vote was held to rename the MCC stations “Voikovskaya” and “Cherkizovskaya”; as a result, they received new names “Baltiyskaya” and “Lokomotiv”.

How will the MCC affect the city outskirts?

The central ring runs mainly through industrial areas. According to the authorities, the emergence of new transport will contribute to the development of these territories, for example ZIL. The mayor's office plans to improve the lands adjacent to the MCC stations: create parking spaces for cars and bicycles, bicycle rentals, landscaping, and also build about 750 thousand square meters of commercial real estate - hotels, retail areas, offices and technology parks.

At the same time, the preserved historical buildings of the Moscow Railway stations, which were designed by architects Alexander Pomerantsev, Nikolai Markovnikov and Ivan Rybin, are now being studied to determine the security zone for each of them. And in the fall, a museum of the history of the MCC will open at the Presnya station, where documents, photographs and films telling about the history of the highway will be presented.

Photos: cover, 1–4, 7 –

So, I decided not to put this matter off, and yesterday, after work, I joined. I didn’t travel the full circle, I didn’t have time, but I mastered three quarters of it - from Vladykino to Izmailovo.

Well, what can I say? So far, it is obvious that this is a pure attraction, much like the Moscow monorail immediately after its opening, which was then officially operating “in excursion mode.” Only the monorail was paid, but the MCC was not, which is what the vast majority of its passengers use. But first things first.

What I liked: Electric trains! You can laugh at me, but yesterday I rode the Swallow for the first time. Very smooth acceleration and quiet, in terms of sound, movement. While driving, you can hear not the sound of traction engines, not the howl of gears, not the knock of compressors - but only the grinding of the wheel flanges on the rails in curves. Well, even at high speed you can feel the car wobbling. But, by and large, in comparison with those ER1 ED4M that we drive - heaven and earth. In general, comparing Siemens Desiro Rus and the crafts of the Demikhovsky plant is like comparing black sturgeon caviar with capelin caviar.

Navigation at the stations is fully present (although in some places the signs with the original names, which were changed during the construction process, have not been replaced). But, in general, everything is clear and intelligible:

Escalators work at all stations where I was - which is important, considering that the route of the Circular Railway, historically, is located on high embankments for almost its entire length.

What I didn't like: Everything on the MCC is still very, very raw. Fortunately, it will take at least two more months to finish it - but in our country, assault and show-off are at the forefront, so... Many stations have not completed the actual exits to the city - for me, for example, to get to the platform from Dmitrovsky highway, I had to walk past the Okruzhnaya platform, because the entrance to it is open only from the inside of the ring, and walk to the next station, Vladykino. There is a transition to the outside on Okruzhnaya, but it is not yet completed and is closed. The former “wild” crossing over the tracks was blocked with fences - however, citizens have already made holes in them... you have to cross the railway, but walk a kilometer around - no fools. The same thing happened at the exit - and I got out in Izmailovo: the direct access to the Partizanskaya metro station is still in the finishing stage, so citizens are forced to use the only exit towards Tkatskaya Street, and make a detour under the overpasses of the MK MZD and the fourth ring. Three hundred meters in a straight line, and six hundred along the existing route - there is a difference.
Secondly, as many have noted, there really are not enough informant announcements on which side the platform is to which the train arrives. On the MCC, the platforms are mostly coastal, but about a quarter are island ones. Until the train approaches the platform directly, it is not visible. As a result, those leaving rush from one side of the car to the other. Over time, of course, they will remember where everything is located and get used to it - just as they are already accustomed to pressing buttons on doors so that they open - but now this is noticeably lacking.
Third is the name. What means Moscow Central Circle? Where is the Moscow non-central ring located? There was a normal name - the Moscow Circular Railway, historical, and understandable to everyone: BMO is BMO, it is in the region, and Okruzhnaya is in Moscow. But no. EM CE KA. The central committee of some EM. The combination of three consonants is terrible.

Well, the fourth thing I don’t like about the MCC - but this is my personal IMHO: the organization of a purely roundabout traffic. The MK MZD has connections with all radial railway lines of the Moscow hub, including those that do not have a through diametrical passage: Kazansky, Kievsky, Paveletsky and Yaroslavsky. Nothing prevents some trains from these directions from running not to their dead-end stations, but in transit through the ring to another radius. Part, not all - maybe one train out of five - ten. Especially considering the desire of the Moscow region authorities and Russian Railways to increase the number of suburban trains under the slogan of turning them into a kind of “light metro” (the term, in this case, is absolutely illiterate, but I will use it in relation to the situation). Yes, this will complicate scheduling and will force you to combine schedules in different directions - but nothing is impossible. After all, the New York subway has been operating on the same route pattern for many decades. Of course, someone will object to me that this is a utopia - my dears, ten years ago the very passenger traffic along the Small Ring was also considered a utopia. However...

Will they use: Definitely they will. First of all, those who work or live within walking distance of the ring stations. I myself, if I still lived on Kutuzovsky Prospekt, would absolutely use it - my home is located directly opposite the platform:

With transfer trips it is much more difficult - for now, on the MCC you can count convenient transfers on the fingers of one hand - "Leninsky Prospekt" - Gagarin Square, "Kutuzovskaya", "Vladykino", "Cherkizovskaya" - Lokomotiv - well, perhaps that's all. Transfers to trains and ground transport are even more difficult. Perhaps, when all this is brought in accordance with plans, passenger traffic will calm down. Again, it is convenient to use the ring for travel only if the route along it is a quarter, or maximum a third, of the length of the ring. If it is more, then it is much more convenient to drive in a straight line, especially since such an opportunity is almost always available. Well, now 80-90% of passengers are exclusively curious citizens. Including transport freaks - weirdos, loudly discussing the advantages and disadvantages of electric trains of the ES2G class compared to trains of the ET2M series, for example:) But someone has already fully appreciated the innovation and is using it directly - transport - purpose:

True, these are mostly young people, for whom seven miles before a transfer is not a detour :) Interestingly, I noticed that on the trains traveling along the inner side of the ring there are much more passengers than on those traveling on the outer side. Well, personally, the MCC is neither a village nor a city for me, at least at the present time.

About the views from the train window: Let's be objective: since the construction of the Circular Railway in 1908, it has been the center of attraction for industrial zones, which were built around it over the course of seventy (I repeat: SEVENTY) years. And overnight they, and the surrounding surroundings that accompany them, will not go anywhere, even though they try to bashfully cover them with fences:

No, I don’t argue that the railway also passes by some pretty beautiful places in Moscow: in Luzhniki, for example, this is the Novodevichy Convent, and the Luzhniki sports complex itself; in Izmailovo - the hotel complex of the same name, and the Izmailovo Fair, with its popular print Kremlin; post-war development in the Oktyabrsky Field area; there are beautiful views from the bridges across the Moscow River, the Belokamennaya station is generally located in the forest, and not just in the forest, but in the Losiny Ostrov National Natural Park; and some people like City skyscrapers:

But, in eighty percent of cases, the surrounding landscape from the window will look like this:

So if you love aesthetics fucking- industrial zones, garages, and multi-level transport interchanges - you will certainly enjoy a trip along the MCC. Just hurry up - with the current pace of Moscow urban development, they will soon, for the most part, be exhausted.

My impressions. Of course, I liked it more than I didn’t like it, judging on a five-point scale :) Just one thing - a ride on an electric train along the legendary Circular Railway, on which passenger trains have not run for more than eighty years - is worth a lot. Of course, the shoals are very noticeable. But there is no doubt that they will be corrected. The main thing is not to forget about the little things.

It’s good that the ring was not turned into a purely passenger ring, a complete analogue of the metro, as some radically minded comrades proposed: after all, the original purpose of the Circular Railway - to connect all Moscow railway radii - is a strategic thing, and should have remained untouched. Again, variety for railway fans ;)

More from what I noticed. The MCC has its own Moscow time:

Business Center station, with its vibrant green color:

The canopy over the platform is connected to the walls in such a way that when it rains, water will pour into the station. Is this how it was intended?

With me at the Kutuzovskaya station, two hard workers dragged, right across the tracks, some kind of hefty electrical box, and threw it onto the platform, in its narrowest place. A minute later, Swallow arrived on the same path, disembarking passengers who had to step over this box, or squeeze between it and the wall. That is, ensuring the safety of both workers and passengers on the MCC is, so far, in complete disarray. I would like to hope that this will not lead to serious consequences.

Something like that. Of course, I plan to drive along the MCC again, more thoughtfully, and during daylight hours. Otherwise in the dark you can’t see anything around at all :)

In the meantime, I voiced my first impressions of his visit. So all of the above is solely my personal subjective opinion.

Yes, and: a note for those who are in the know;) In my passport, in the “Place of birth” column it says “Moscow city”. And on my father’s side I am a third generation Muscovite;)

Helpful information

No matter how banal it may sound, the pace of human life is accelerating day by day. A person is constantly in a hurry to somewhere: to work, to school, to university. In addition to proper time management, a well-functioning transport system helps you get everything done. One of its parts is the MCC or Moscow Central Circle.

History and layout of the MCC

In the past, the ring had a different name - the Moscow Circular Railway. The first mentions of it date back to the end of the 19th century, a time when the industrial boom was actively developing. Back then, goods were transported using dray cabs. The process required a lot of effort and time. That is why tycoon F.I. Chizhov proposed the idea of ​​​​building a ring road. On the one hand, it was just in time. But on the other hand, a number of problems arose.

As it turned out, the state owns only 5% of all railways. All others are private property. Each has its own rules and prices. It took a lot of time to resolve this issue. But by the end of the 19th century, most of the roads became state-owned.

The order for the construction of the Moscow Circular Railway was given by Emperor Nicholas II on November 7, 1897. The commencement ceremony took place on August 3, 1903.

Moscow MCC map of those times included several objects:

• 22 branches connecting to the main railway tracks;
• 14 stations;
• 2 stopping points;
• 3 telegraph posts;
• 72 bridges, including those that cross the Moscow River;
• 30 overpasses;
• 185 culvert structures;
• 19 buildings for passengers;
• 30 houses;
• 2 houses for employees;
• 2 baths;
• 2 reception rooms.

The work was carried out under the supervision of the best Russian engineers and architects. These include N. A. Belelyubsky, L. D. Proskuryakov, A. N. Pomerantsev.

Now MCC station map looks like that:

• 31 stations;
• 17 stations for transfer to other metro lines;
• 10 stations for transferring to trains.

More than 200,000,000,000 rubles were spent on the construction of the structure. The total length of roads is 54 km. The round trip will take 84 minutes. Each train running between stations can accommodate 1,200 passengers.

Moscow metro map with MCC, trips and statistics

In fact, the MCC is part of the Moscow metro. In the documents it is designated as the Second Ring Line of the metro. This transport system is inextricably linked with it in the form of fares and transfers. On metro maps, routes are indicated by a white line with a red border. Each of them has the signature of the MCC and a serial number.

Transportation is carried out by more than three dozen Lastochka trains. Each of them accommodates 1,200 people. The maximum speed reaches 120 km/h, but the operating speed will remain at 40-50 km/h. Train intervals range from 5 to 15 minutes. It all depends on the time of day. During rush hour they will travel more often.

All Lastochkas are equipped with soft seats and climate control systems. Passengers have the opportunity to connect to WI-FI and even charge their gadgets.

Trains do not have vestibules. However, their wide double doors make it easy to transport passengers with limited mobility.

MCC has a lot of features and nuances. The figures below will help you see how ambitious the idea for its construction was.

1. The ring road, which later became the MCC, was built 111 years ago.
2. 130 pairs of trains pass here every day.
3. To establish regular traffic, the state had to spend more than 70 billion rubles.
4. Thanks to the work of the MCC, the Koltsevaya metro line has been decongested by 15%.
5. In the first year, 75 million people were transported by Lastochkas.
6. MCC provided citizens with 40,000 jobs.
7. There are car parks near most of the stations.
8. According to the plan, trains will be able to transport more than 300,000,000 people within a year.

Thanks to the ring, it was possible to significantly relieve urban transport.

So, MCC is a good alternative to cars. This is the absence of traffic jams, affordable travel costs and the ability to be punctual. Metro map with MCC will show how and at which station you can transfer to a train in the desired direction, and the availability of parking lots and convenient transition to the station will save both time and effort.
