In Omsk, the metro was taken under guard so that they would not ride a canoe
In Omsk, the city authorities took the protection of two flooded stations of the mothballed city metro. This was explained by the need to prevent the local residents rode the canoe in tunnels at the Zarechny and Crystal stations. It is reported by Omsk-Inform.
The stations began to be guarded from March 1. “A few years ago, there was a case when Omichi penetrated this location and rode there on canoe. Protection is needed to exclude such cases,” Dinar Kurmanov, vice -governor of the Omsk region, told reporters.
What kind of official is talking about is unknown. In 2021, the Mash telegram channel reported a group of stalkers, which penetrated the flooded stations of the Omsk metro, rode there on inflatable boats and fried meat on the barbecue.
- The decision to build a metro in Omsk was made in 1986, financing began in 1992. The launch of a branch with four stations was transferred from 2008 to 2012, 2015 and 2016. The only station was delivered in 2011. About 14 billion rubles were invested in the construction as a whole.
- In May 2018, the Omsk Region government decided to freeze the construction of the Omsk metro. The preparation of the conservation project will require 80 million rubles, and another 400 million on its execution. As part of the project, it is planned to complete the construction of the Zarechny station, and completely close the site at the Crystal station.
