Kyiv Metro has signed a contract to continue construction of the Syretsko-Pecherska subway line in the direction of the Vynohradar residential area, with Avtostrada Group LLC winning the tender.
According to the website of the Kyiv City State Administration, the construction period is set at 30 months and the cost of the works is UAH 13 billion 785 million. The procurement was conducted on the Prozorro public procurement platform.
“We are currently in the process of obtaining all the permits required by law and handing over the construction sites to the contractor. After that, construction work will begin,” the statement said.
The city administration emphasized that the construction of the subway will not only solve transportation problems, but will also provide residents of the Podil district with “round-the-clock reliable shelters.”
According to the Kyiv City State Administration, the right-hand tunnel has already been built, stretching almost 1,250 meters from Mostytska station to Syrets station. In addition, the construction of the main structures of the distillation ventilation unit has been completed. Also, the wall-in-soil method of enclosing structures and the metal structures for the pit have been partially installed. The main structures of the combined traction substation were constructed, and two-tier tunnels were partially constructed.
In December 2023, Kyiv Metro terminated the contract with Kyivmetrobud JSC in court due to the failure to meet the deadlines for construction work. The court is considering the recovery of a part of the prepayment, the use of which is not confirmed by the relevant acts of work performed, as well as penalties.
