Sobyanin spoke about the development of a unified navigation system in Moscow transport
Sergei Sobyanin reported on his Telegram channel that specialists have been developing a comprehensive navigation system for Moscow transport for 10 years.
The system helps residents and visitors of the capital to build the most optimal routes and plan transfers, the mayor said. That is why navigation maps with images of buildings, parks and other iconic objects are placed at public transport stops and city streets.
Another auxiliary element is pictograms on signs. With their help, passengers intuitively perceive information about metro lines or transfers to the MCD.
At the same time, new transport facilities are integrated into a single navigation system, Sobyanin emphasized. This concerns Moscow city stations, diameters, river transport and cycling.
Thus, in 2024, for the first time in Russia, the digital Maryina Roshcha station of the BKL metro and Terminal 1 of the Moscow city station Nizhegorodskaya were installed in Moscow. At the same time, passengers can use digital signs, "real-time communication" meters and tombstones with touch navigation.
When working on navigation, the city authorities take into account the experience of other large cities in the world, but create a completely unique project that is constantly being improved according to the needs of passengers.
Recently, a new name appeared on the Moscow metro map. This happened after the launch of the first stage of the Troitskaya line and the Potapovo station of the Red line. Accordingly, the geometry of the Sokolnicheskaya and Solntsevskaya lines on the map changed. Additionally, the location of the Kaluzhsko-Rizhskaya, Solntsevskaya highways and MCD-4 was adjusted. The new branches were described as emerald.
