Recent developments and future plans
Since the 1990s, there have been several moves to expand the line to Ploshchad Stanislavskogo. Initially, the city planned to start construction in 2010;[2] however, this did not materialize. In 2014, the city indicated that it would move forward on planning for two new stations on the Dzerzhinskaya Line instead.[3] In 2018, the mayor of Novosibirsk stated that it was necessary to build the Ploshchad Stanislavskogo station to relieve automobile traffic. The mayor estimated the cost to complete three new stations would be about 20 billion rubles.[4]
