Prague Metro (Subway)

metro

The Prague metro carries around 400 million passengers a year. It is fast, efficient, clean, and easy to use. Its three lines consist of about 50 km of tracks (running mostly underground) and some 50 stations.

The lines currently are:

Line A (Green) - running east to west from Skalka to Dejvická
Line B (Yellow) - running east to west from Černý most to Zličín
Line C (Red) - running north to south from Letňany to Háje

There are three transfer stations in the city center where two lines intersect:

Můstek (lower end of Wenceslas Square) - lines A and B
Muzeum (upper end of Wenceslas Square) - lines A and C
Florenc (main bus station) - lines B and C

These are transfer points from one line to another. Each transfer route is clearly marked and takes some 3-5 minutes.
Trains run from 5 a.m. till midnight in 2-3 min. intervals during peak hours and in 4-10 min. intervals in the off hours. The time elapsed from the moment when the previous train left the station can be seen on the clock at the head of the tracks. All stations are equipped with escalators, some allow access for the disabled.
Once on the train, the following announcements can be heard:

  1. Name of the station where the train is currently stopped, e.g. "Můstek"
  2. Warning: "Ukončete prosím výstup a nástup, dveře se zavírají." (Please finish exiting and boarding the train, the doors are closing.)
  3. Name of the following station (e.g. Muzeum): "Příští stanice: Muzeum" (Next station: Muzeum), followed, if applicable, by "Přestup na linku A/B/C." (Transfer to line A/B/C)

The Prague metro is only about 30 years old and is mostly Russian-built. By 2008, all cars are to be replaced by new ones built by Siemens. An extension by new stations and two new lines (D and E) is planned for the future.
