The Moscow Central Circle (MCC) has been carrying passengers for more than a year. But some expressway stations are still difficult to reach. Especially for those who want to transfer to Lastochka from the metro, surface train or commuter train.
Convenient pedestrian crossings to the ring have already opened on two railway lines. In the Smolensk direction - from the Testovskaya platform to the Delovoy Tsentr and Shelepikha MCC stations. And in the Kazan direction, instead of an inconvenient single-level crossing across the railway tracks, an underground one was built. Now, without risking your life, you can cross the railway from the Freser platform to the Andronovka MCC station and back.
We continue to integrate the MCC and metro stations with the radial directions of the railway,” said Deputy Mayor of Moscow Marat Khusnullin. - By 2018, we will reduce the distance of transfers between four railway platforms and the MCC. At the same time, we will open three new transfers from commuter trains to Lastochki. To do this, we will build new platforms and terminals.
In addition, after the reconstruction of the Kiev direction of the railway in New Moscow, electric trains will begin to travel during rush hour at intervals of up to three minutes (currently 6-10 minutes). Three new stations will be built on this line. And another new station will be opened in the Kursk direction - Novokhokhlovskaya. By the end of 2018, it will be connected to the MCC via a convenient passage.
The capital's Construction Complex told us in what other places in a year the MCC will become closer to regular trains and the metro.
The platform for suburban trains Severyanin will be moved 350 meters to the Rostokino MCC station. At the same time, an underground passage from the MCC side and a new passenger terminal from the region are already being built here.
What will happen: when transferring, passengers will have to walk only 20 meters instead of 620 meters. Moreover, the transition will be done according to the “dry feet” principle, that is, pedestrians will not even need to go outside. In addition, there will be a little less crowding at the Yaroslavsky railway station and the Komsomolskaya metro station. After all, now some people have to come right here in order to quickly get to the subway and the MCC.
A railway overpass with a platform for Okruzhnaya commuter trains will be built across the MCC tracks in the area of Station Street. A turnstile and cash terminal will be opened under the overpass. In the future, there will be a single passenger terminal with elevators and escalators. It will connect the stops of the MCC and the Savyolovsky direction of the Moscow Railway, as well as the Okruzhnaya station under construction on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya metro line.
What will happen: the distance between the MCC and the Okruzhnaya railway platform will be reduced from 260 to 50 meters. You don't have to go outside to transfer. Passengers will pass through a covered walkway. At the same time, the Timiryazevskaya and Savelovskaya metro stations on the Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya line will be unloaded.
Near the Verkhnie Kotly MCC station on the Paveletsky direction of the Moscow Railway, a new platform for suburban trains Varshavskaya will be built. A turnstile and cash terminal will also appear here. Three railway overpasses will be built in this area and the overpass over the MCC will be reconstructed.
What will happen: a convenient transfer from Varshavskaya to the Verkhnie Kotly MCC station using the “dry feet” principle. There will be less crowding at the Nagatinskaya metro station on the Serpukhovsko-Timiryazevskaya line and Paveletsky station.
A new railway platform with two terminals will be built near the Streshnevo MCC station. One of them will allow you to go from a regular train to Lastochka via a covered walkway.
What will happen: to transfer between the railway and the MCC, passengers will need to walk only 50 meters instead of the current 320 meters. At the same time, the Tushinskaya and Dmitrovskaya metro stations will be unloaded.
Kursk direction
A platform of the same name for commuter trains with a passenger terminal will be built near the Novokhokhlovskaya MCC station.
What will happen: using a covered passage it will be possible to cross from the Kursk direction of the Moscow Railway to the MCC.
The Karacharovo railway platform will be moved closer to the Nizhegorodskaya MCC station. In addition, an underground passage will be built between them.
An overpass will be built between the Likhobory MCC station and the NATI platform of the Oktyabrskaya Railway using the “dry feet” principle.
What will happen: passengers will be able to get to their desired stations on average 10 minutes faster. In addition, the passage of passengers over future sections of the North-East Expressway road network will become safe.
And at this time
The first section of the Greater MetroRing is being prepared for opening
Igor PAVLOV
Five new stations will be launched in late November - early December.
The capital's metro is preparing to launch the first stations of the second ring, which will be fully ready in three years. Next year, sections from Petrovsky Park to Nizhnyaya Maslovka and from Nizhegorodskaya to Rubtsovskaya will be put into operation. In 2019 - from “Nizhnyaya Maslovka” to “Rubtsovskaya”, from “Mnevniki” to “Khoroshevskaya” and from “Aminevskoye Shosse” to “Kakhovskaya”. The ring will be completely closed in 2020 and will include 31 stations.
This year, “Petrovsky Park”, “Shelepikha”, “CSKA”, “Khoroshevskaya” and “Business Center” are opening (the length of the section is 10.5 km). According to Deputy Mayor for Urban Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin, this will happen in late November - early December. These stations have been built and already tested. In September, the metro launched a technical train. Now the running-in of the tracks continues.
It is expected that the launch of the first stations of the Big Metroring will relieve congestion on the Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya and Zamoskvoretskaya lines.
It's no secret that the MCC makes the most sense in the north. This is due to the fact that the ring itself is farthest from the center in the north, and accordingly it becomes possible to shorten your journey and not take the metro to the center to the Circle Line. However, it is not only the distance from the ring that attracts passengers to the MCC in the north. As shown by the figures for passenger flows, the most popular stations are “Gagarin Square” - because the metro transfer there is the most convenient, followed by the “northern” stations “Vladykino” and “Botanical Garden”. This is because these stations are located right next to the new ring and the transitions there are as comfortable as possible. This concerns Muscovite users. And now another category of MCC users are people who live in the region, but come to work and study in the Capital. Here in the north, again, transfers from electric trains are made most conveniently. From the NATI and Okruzhnaya stations you can get to the MCC stations in a few minutes. Another station that was strung on the new ring is “Severyanin”. Over time, they promise to move the platform closer to the MCC station and it will be even more convenient for passengers to transfer to the Rostokino station. We will go there today, let’s see how everything is done, and whether there is a basis for integrating the MCC station and the Severyanin railway station into one transport hub.
1. The fact that the Rostokino station is focused specifically on a promising transfer from Severyanin is immediately clear. The platform is shifted towards the railway. If it had been decided to build a station for Muscovites, it would have been moved towards Prospekt Mira. Perhaps they even placed the station directly on the overpass above the highway with exits on both sides of Prospekt Mira. Accordingly, for users coming from nearby residential buildings, a rather long approach, a paved path, was made. The station's passenger terminal is located closer to the railway line, so it's quite a long walk to get there.
2. The road here, unfortunately, is still dirty, of course, work is still underway, all MCC stations were opened in a semi-finished state “Rostokino is no exception. I would like to believe that everything will be put in order soon.
3. The canopy over the platform is very unusual, it is not a typical Russian Railways one, like at almost all stations of the ring, it is of an original design. Although the original one could have been in the 60s or 70s. Nowadays this architecture makes me smile.
4. Overcoming the mud, we get to the pavilion.
5. The pavilion is original. Bright, red. Not bad.
6. Everything is assembled to a fairly high quality, but the complaint, as always, is about the panels that go to the very bottom. But then I see someone came up with the idea “how can we protect the lower part of the panels from damage” and installed wheel guards. A strange decision, to be honest. Why not make a normal, human base - simple and durable. Well, again, everything will be visible after several years of operation.
7. The ticket offices here are outside - not a very convenient solution, although this is the case at many Russian Railways stations; commuter train users won’t be surprised by this. By the way, the road to "Severyanin" leads from here to the left. And in the background you can see a fence blocking off the railway tracks.
8. Overall it looks good. Especially this visor.
9. Everything inside is simple, no frills. Although the ceiling is decorated with red panels, it is a color accent.
10. On the other side there is another exit, on the other side of the railway tracks. On the right are the doors to the lobby.
11. Everything inside is quite compact. To the left are the entrance doors, ticket machines are visible in the background, and there are turnstiles across the lobby. An interesting artifact lies against the far wall. These are signs with the name of the Yaroslavskaya station. This is what the station was called when the ring was still the Moscow Ring Railway.
12. There is a staircase and two lines of escalators leading to the platform. There is no elevator for the disabled; there is a lift along the staircase. I don’t understand what prevented us from installing an elevator here.
13. We go up to the pavilion on the platform. For some reason the ceilings are very low here. Strange decision. You can reach the ceiling cladding with your hand without any problems.
14. The pavilion on the platform looks like this.
15. From the platform you can see another exit from the underground vestibule.
16. The design of the canopy and benches at the station evokes thoughts of the good old scoop. I don’t know who came up with this, but we are in the 21st century, it looks ridiculous.
17. Concrete pedestals painted red - Malevich would have been pleased.
18. Another view of the platform. I liked the lines of the lamps on the cover. And all around, look, there are industrial zones. At night it must be bleak here.
19. Here comes the train, it’s time to move on.

Platform “ Northerner” The Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway will be moved to the station of the Moscow Central Circle “ Rostokino”, said Deputy Mayor for Urban Development Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin.
According to him, which are given on the website of the Moscow Construction Complex, in order to create comfortable conditions for transferring from the Moscow Central Circle to the Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway, it is planned to move the platform “ Northerner” closer to MCC station “ Rostokino”.
"Thus, the distance between two stopping points will be reduced from 620 to 20 meters", - noted Khusnullina. From the new platform “ Northerner” an underground passage to the MCC station will be built “ Rostokino” and an additional exit to the territory of the future transport hub.
The removal of railway communications from the construction zone is currently underway, and work has begun on the construction of platforms. "The construction of a new platform and the organization of a convenient transfer will reduce the load on the Yaroslavsky railway station and the metro station “Komsomolskaya”.

For passengers, the distance between two stops will be reduced from 620 to 20 meters.
According to Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin, the passenger flow of this transport hub during rush hour can reach 37 thousand people. "To create comfortable conditions for transferring from the Moscow Central Circle to the Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway, it is planned to move the existing Severyanin platform", he said.
The head of the capital's Construction Complex added that preparatory work is currently underway: specialists are removing railway communications from the construction zone. The construction of the platforms themselves began. . . . . .
Next year, the Severyanin platform of the Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway will be moved closer to the Rostokino MCC station. This was announced by Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Urban Development Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin.

According to Khusnullin, as a result of the transfer, the distance between the platforms will be reduced from 620 to 20 meters, which will allow for a more convenient transfer. In the future, it is planned to organize a transport hub in the area of the two platforms.
In addition to moving the platform, an underground pedestrian crossing will be built from one platform to another, from which an additional exit to the territory of the future transport hub will be organized. Khusnullin noted that during peak hours, passenger traffic at this hub can be up to 37 thousand people.
Platform “ Northerner” The Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway will be moved to the MCC station “ Rostokino”, reducing the distance between them to 20 meters. This was reported by the Moscow Construction Complex.
From the station “ Northerner” will build an underground passage to “ Rostokino”, and will also make an additional entrance to the future transport hub. Three new platforms will also be built for the transfer, said Deputy Mayor for Urban Development Policy and Construction Marat Khusnullin.
Now the railway communications are being removed from the construction zone, and the construction of platforms has begun. The work is expected to be completed by 2018.
It is planned that a convenient transfer will reduce the load on Yaroslavsky railway station and the metro station “Komsomolskaya”. During peak hours, about 37 thousand passengers use this hub.
The Severyanin platform has been popular among both Moscow residents and guests of the capital for several years in a row. The whole point is that across the street from it, the most popular in all of Europe (within the city) - “Golden Babylon” - opens its doors to everyone every day.
Instead of the metro
It was only in September 2016, as part of the launch of the Moscow Central Circle (MCC), that the Rostokino metro station opened in Moscow in close proximity to the shopping center. And before that, the only one with a stopping point in close proximity to the shopping center was the Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway. The nearest metro stations: and "Sviblovo" are located two kilometers from the shopping center and further. And this is about half an hour’s walk through a semi-industrial area, and even then at a brisk pace and in good weather. You can, of course, get there from the metro and by bus, but for residents of the suburbs, especially for those who live in the north of the Moscow region, it is much more convenient to use commuter trains. For them, the Severyanin platform is the most convenient access to the shopping center.
Story
The Northern Railway stopping point opened in 1932. A few years earlier, it was possible to electrify regular railway traffic between the capital and Mytishchi near Moscow. Due to the rapid growth of industrial enterprises, a sharp increase in passenger traffic prompted management to develop new stations.
The Severyanin platform received its name in honor of the suburban village of Krasny Severyanin. Prigorodny, because in those years Moscow had not yet extended its borders beyond the Moscow Circular Railway (where the MCC now runs). And although the residential part of the settlement was located a little to the north, in the area of Yeniseiskaya Street, this did not save it from a sad fate. The village was completely demolished in the late fifties, and the Moskva-Tovarnaya marshalling yard was built in its place.
Fast and convenient
The Yaroslavl direction of the Moscow Railway originates from the station of the same name, and from here it will take a passenger only 14 minutes to get to the Severyanin platform. During this time, the electric train manages to travel seven kilometers and make 3 possible additional stops. Many agree that it is much faster and more convenient than standing in a traffic jam, getting to the Golden Babylon shopping center on a free bus. The Yaroslavsky station itself is located almost in the city center, not far from the Komsomolskaya metro station. Despite the fact that the Severyanin platform is located in the second zone, the cost of travel in Moscow is the same and amounts to 32 rubles for a one-way ticket.
Location
The stopping point consists of two island platforms and one side platform. In 2008, the station was partially reconstructed, equipped with passenger control turnstiles of the ASOKUPE system, and additional fences were also installed on its borders to prevent unauthorized persons from entering the territory of the railway track and track development of the station. The third platform, the eastern one, is a reserve platform and is used extremely rarely, only during peak load on the line and for the passage or temporary layover of freight trains. A pedestrian bridge connects all three platforms.
Sometimes it can be quite difficult to find where the Northerner platform is, especially for those who are new to the area. It is successfully hidden from prying eyes by the massive base of the automobile overpass of the same name. From the other end it is difficult to distinguish due to the heavy traffic at the junction of Yaroslavskoye Highway with Serebryakov Passage and Yeniseiskaya Street. However, you can go to it safely and anywhere. On one side, the entrance to the Severyaninsky Bridge is crossed along the overground bridge, on the other.
Transplants
The development of the capital's public transport does not stand still, which is what Moscow is famous for. The Severyanin platform was actively included in the passenger high-speed transport system in September 2016, with the opening of the Rostokino MCC station. The transition between stations takes about 5-7 minutes and runs along the street sidewalk.
Construction of a “warm passage” between stations is currently underway, for which they plan to move the platform 250 meters to the south. Bus and trolleybus services both along Yaroslavskoe Highway, and along Yeniseiskaya Street and along Serebryakova Passage, have the “Severyanin Platform” stop on their route. The nearest metro they connect is the “Botanical Garden”, “Sviblovo” and “VDNKh” stations "And the bus on route 93 goes all the way to the Medvedkovo metro station. You can also transfer to the platform from the tram on route 17, which will take the passenger either to the VDNKh metro station or to Babushkinskaya.
Train Collision
On April 19, 2003, not far from the Losinoostrovskaya station, within the border of which the Severyanin platform is located, a train collision occurred, as a result of which two people were killed and fourteen were injured. A DMS trolley, transporting a team of repairmen to the site of electrical work, crashed into a stationary utility train with a KZD crane.
A combination of several factors led to the tragic disaster. The driver of the handcar, violating the dispatcher's instructions, drove outside the station, where the collision occurred. Moreover, there were 21 workers on the handcar, instead of the required 9. The dispatcher violated the rules for the movement of shunting trains on the railway, and the station duty officer allowed the trolley to leave without checking the train radio and documents.
The relocation of the Severyanin station is planned to be completed in 2018. In addition to connecting with the MCC, this will reduce the load on the Yaroslavsky railway station and the Komsomolskaya metro station. The project includes the construction of three platforms and two crossings.
“The development of public transport is one of the key policy points of Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin. By moving the station and creating a stopping hub, we are increasing the mobility of passengers and making the system more convenient as a whole,”- said Kuznetsov.
The underground passage will connect the three platforms of the junction and will pass under the Yaroslavl direction tracks. On one side it will go out to Severyaninsky Proezd, and on the other - to the Rostokino station. At each exit there are two escalators and a small staircase for passengers. In addition, there are elevators at each exit to the project. During peak hours, up to 13 thousand people per hour will be able to pass through the underground passage.
The elevated vestibule will be located above the railway tracks and three new platforms and will also serve for the transit of passengers across the railway. Its entrances will also be equipped with escalators and elevators. During peak hours, this crossing will be able to accommodate up to 5 thousand people per hour.
