Maryina Roshcha (Bolshaya Koltsevaya Line)
Upon its opening, Maryina Roshcha will become the second-deepest station in the Moscow Metro, after Park Pobedy. At a depth of 72 m (236 ft) underground, Maryina Roshcha has four 130 m (430 ft) escalators, the longest escalators in Moscow.
History
Maryina Roshcha is one of 31 metro stations on the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line ('large circle line'), which, with 70 km (43 mi) of track, is scheduled to become what Moscow Metro calls the largest circular metro line in the world upon its opening in 2023. The line was first conceived in 1985, with construction on the line beginning in 2011.
General contractor Mosinzhproekt held an international contest to determine the architectural design of the station, with the citizens of Moscow voting in 2017 to determine the winner amongst the finalists. The winning design, by AI Architects, focuses on porcelain and rounded shapes.
The station is one of 14 Moscow Metro stations scheduled to open in 2023. Maryina Roshcha's technical launch was held on 30 November 2022, along with those of Sokolniki and Rizhskaya, as part of the deployment of the new northeast section of the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line.
