Weekly “Arguments and Facts” # 51. How much does it cost to celebrate the New Year? 12/22/2021
Komsomolskaya metro station by the number of passengers it is considered the busiest, and not Vykhino at all, as many are used to believing.
You don't believe me? Look at the Thousands of Subway Passengers map, which was recently created by city planner Alexei Radchenko and programmer Sergei Turulin (more information on metrostat.ru). The authors used the Moscow open data portal data.mos.ru: the information was collected for the second quarter of the outgoing year, therefore, for example, there is no news section of the Big Circle Line on the map. Among the three 'winners' appear “ Komsomolskaya '' (153 thousand passengers per day), Novogirevo (120 thousand), 3rd place is shared by VDNKh and & # 39; Shchelkovskaya & # 39; (119 thousand people each). At Vykhino & ndash; 4th place (117,000).
But, speaking of congestion, one has to keep in mind not only the individual metro stops, but all of the lines themselves. And here, everything falls into place. By far the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya metro line (purple) occupies the 1st place. Indeed, in its south-eastern section, 3 & # 39; & # 39; & # 39; Difficult & # 39; & # 39; stations & ndash; Vykhino, Kouzminki and 'Textile Workers'.
