M6 Metro Line is a major urban infrastructure project, designed for residents and visitors to the capital, both from within the country and abroad.
We all want Bucharest to be a modern capital with smooth-flowing, efficient and environmentally friendly traffic, but construction works do cause inconvenience – something we understand, empathise with and are doing our utmost to minimise.
The work on the future metro stations will result in the 14.2 km long underground double track linking Gara de Nord (the North Railway Station) with the Otopeni Airport and will uncover 12 new metro stations along the way.
On 24 August, preparations began for the works on the connection between M6 Metro Line and the existing 1 Mai metro station.
WHAT ABOUT TRAFFIC?
Road traffic has been diverted on the basis of the Traffic Deviation Plan approved by the Traffic Technical Commission of the Bucharest City Hall, the Transportation Department, the Bucharest Streets Administration and the Bucharest Traffic Police.
The new operating diagrams of the traffic light systems at the intersection of Calea Griviței and Mureș Street and Ion Mihalache Blvd. and Clăbucet Street and the road signs are being applied in accordance with the legislation in force, and the Traffic Brigade is supervising the smooth traffic flow in the area. Please follow the information communicated by the STB, the Bucharest City Hall and the Bucharest Traffic Police.
Traffic restriction measures are required under the implementation of the construction works plan under the contract “Bucharest International Airport Rail Access Link Project (Metro Line 6. 1 Mai-Otopeni). Design and Build – Civil Works for Lot 1.1: 1Mai-Tokyo”.
DURATION
The notice is valid from 10.08.2024 to 15.11.2024. Any changes that may occur along the way will be announced in an updated notice.
WHERE DO WE GET THE INFORMATION?
For maximum effective communication, traffic deviations and restrictions have been announced in accordance with current legislation, at least 7 days before the restrictions are in place.
We are continuously communicating to the local residents and commuters through various methods to ensure that the information reaches as many people as possible:
- Press release
- Social media posts
- Publication of news on the M6 website
- Distribution of flyers in the 1 Mai area
- Distribution of posters at the entrance of residential buildings in the 1 Mai area
- M6 banners on fences
- Dealing with petitions and questions from citizens
- Information from other institutions
WHAT ALTERNATIVES DO WE HAVE?
We encourage commuters travelling through the north-western part of the capital to use the metro, which is a convenient way to reach their destination quickly, affordably and safely. At the same time, to assist the public living in the Bucharest – Ilfov metropolitan area, Metrorex offers the option of using the car park at the Străulești Multimodal Terminal, which has over 600 parking spaces.
Metrorex, through the Central Traffic Control Center, constantly monitors passenger traffic flows and takes all the necessary measures both by managing the increased flow of users as well as by adjusting the appropriate traffic intervals.
At the same time, depending on the passenger flow, additional points of contact with the public (ticket offices/access control booths) are provided.
Please constantly follow our social media pages for up-to-date information.
We also invite you to follow the website www.magistrala6.ro where you can find up-to-date information about the construction site works as well as general information about M6 Metro Line.
We would like to thank all residents of the 1 MAI area, as well as all traffic participants, for their understanding and support.
