On September 4, Tashkent Metro officially reopened the second vestibule at the “Friendship of Peoples” station. It had previously been closed due to technical work involving the replacement of outdated escalators with new ones. The completion of these works has allowed the full resumption of passenger service, providing access to all entrances and exits of the station.
The escalators at the “Friendship of Peoples” station had been in operation since the station’s opening and required modernization. Now, passengers can use the upgraded escalators, significantly improving convenience and safety during their metro journeys.
As part of the Tashkent Metro’s infrastructure modernization program, escalators at other stations will also be replaced in phases. The next station in line is “Novza,” where technical work to replace the escalators will begin on September 5, 2024. For safety reasons, the second vestibule of this station will be temporarily closed, but access to the platforms will be maintained through the existing stairs.
Tashkent Metro thanks its passengers for their understanding and patience during the construction period and promises to continue infrastructure improvements for enhanced comfort and safety.
