Tashkent metro
Tashkent Metro or Tashkent Metro is the oldest metro in Central Asia. Construction of the Tashkent metro began in 1968-1970, and the first line (Chilanzarskaya), 12.2 km long and 9 stations, was built in 1976 and put into operation in 1977. The second stage of this line was put into operation in 1980. The first part of the second line of the Tashkent metro (Uzbekistan) was put into operation in 1984, and became fully operational in 1992.
During the years of Independence, the first part of the Yunusabad line was designed and put into operation in September 2001 - 6 stations, and on August 30, 2020 two more stations. Also, on August 30, 2020, the first stage (7 stations) of the above-ground ring line (Thirty Years of Independence) of the metro was launched. On December 26, 2020, the Sergeli surface line was launched, consisting of 5 stations (the 6th in construction), which will be a logical continuation of the Chilanzar metro line. From April 25, 2023, 5 more stations of the above-ground ring line (Thirty Years of Independence) were launched. On March 11, 2024, 2 more stations of this line were launched
Currently, the Tashkent metro has 5 lines (Chilanzarskaya, Uzbekistanskaya, Yunusabadskaya, Thirty Years of Independence (circular ground) and Sergeliyskaya (ground)), 50 stations with a total length of 70.5 km.
In the period from March 22 to August 14, 2020, traffic on the Tashkent metro was suspended due to the COVID-19 quarantine.
On August 9, 2023, by decree of the Government of the Republic of Uzbekistan, the names of 19 elevated metro stations were approved, which previously bore digital names (1st station, 2nd station, etc.), and stations 1−5 were both on the circle line and on the Sergeli section of the Chilanzar line. It also follows from the document that the overhead ring line “Dustlik - Kuylyuk” was named “Uzbekiston Mustakillinging Uttiz Yilligi” (“30th Anniversary of Independence of Uzbekistan.”
