First part of new “D” line of Prague Metro to open in 2022

The first part of a new “D” line of the Prague Metro system should go into operation in 2022, according to a decision taken by the city council on Tuesday. The line – which will feature driverless trains – will at first run from Pankrác to the as yet unbuilt Depo Písnice station in the south of the city before being extended later. Work is set to begin on the multi-billion crown project in three years’ time.
