Future plans

The third metro line is in planning. Construction of M3 line is expected to start in 2023. The entire metro network is going to contain about a 100 km of tracks.

In conclusion

In my opinion Warsaw metro is really nice, the system is new, safe and clean. The M2 line is very modern and looks very good. I'm attaching a photo gallery as a proof. :)
