In Minsk, the construction of three new stations of the Zialionaluzhskaya metro line continues — “Park Druzhby Narodaŭ”, “Kamarovskaya”, and “Piarespa”. As of October 7, the “Park Druzhby Narodaŭ” station has reached the highest readiness, “Kamarovskaya” is slightly behind, and “Piarespa” is currently at an early stage,

Tunnels between the new stations are being laid by two mechanized tunnel boring machines — “Alesia” and “Maryia”. “Alesia” started work first and has already almost reached the area of the “Belarus” hotel. Currently, the complex is located under the intersection of Masherava Avenue and Starazhyskaya Street, where tram tracks run.

“Maryia” is working in the direction of “Kamarovskaya” under Maksim Bahdanovich Street. Approximately 150 meters remain to the future station. It is expected that in about a month, the complex will reach the location where the “Kamarovskaya” station complex will be situated — under the intersection of Maksim Bahdanovich and Viera Kharuzhaya streets.

Rails have already been received for the new line. They have started to be welded into long rail strings, after which it is planned to begin laying them in the tunnels in the direction from “Park Druzhby Narodaŭ” to “Kamarovskaya”.

Beyond the “Park Druzhby Narodaŭ” station, turnaround dead-ends for train reversals are being built. They are already more than 80% complete, and their completion is planned for 2026. In some sections, the space above the structures has already begun to be backfilled with soil.

At the “Park Druzhby Narodaŭ” station itself, the first vestibule with two entrances is currently being built. One of them will be located near a fast-food restaurant, the second — across the road. Inside the station, the construction of monolithic structures has also already begun.

In November 2026, in the area of Park Druzhby Narodaŭ, traffic organization at the roundabout for all transport is planned to be changed. The final return of vehicular traffic to the usual scheme is planned after decisions are made regarding the fourth, circular metro line.

At “Piarespa”, work is currently underway to lower the groundwater level. The so-called “diaphragm wall”, which is to enclose the station’s excavation pit, is approximately 50% complete. Full-scale construction of the station cannot yet begin, as tunnel laying is ongoing. The active phase of “Piarespa” construction is planned to start in March 2027.

At “Kamarovskaya”, a special complex is completing the construction of the enclosing structures for the excavation pit. In approximately two months, it is expected to finish this work and move to “Piarespa”. By the end of 2026, excavation for “Kamarovskaya” is planned to begin.

In spring 2027, builders expect to partially restore the road surface in areas where work is currently underway. The first section planned to be opened for normal traffic is a stretch of Maksim Bahdanovich Street between Nekrasava and Surhanava streets.

In parallel, preparations are also underway for the construction of the fourth, circular metro line. It is expected that in the second half of 2027, the “Alesia” complex will begin laying a tunnel under Arlouskaya Street towards Viasnianka, and a little later, “Maryia” will follow with the second tunnel. The length of the Zialionaluzhskaya line section with three new stations will be about 6 kilometers.
