M2 (Warsaw)

The first plans presumed that following the completion of the central branch, an extension to Bemowo could be complete by 2017, and followed by an offshoot extension to Bródno by 2020.[7] Following these proposals the Warsaw city council analysed the concept of extending the M2 metro line in both directions simultaneously although in smaller increments. It was assumed the extensions to Księcia Janusza and Trocka would be opened to public use by 2017.[8]

On 14 December 2011 the Białołęka district council adopted an official resolution for the alteration of the planned M2 metro line route. The resolution proposed the removal of the Bródno metro station by Kondratowicza and Rembiielińska streets. The new concept suggested the continuation of the line north past Kondratowicza street, routing the metro line to a newly proposed metro station by the Trasa Toruńska highway and Głębocka street.[9]

In April 2013 the proposed M2 metro line extension was declined. The main allegations concerned inconsistencies between the projects and the provision of local spatial development plans and the lack of appropriate documents describing the impact of the investment on groundwater.[10]

In June 2014, a new line expansion schedule was presented, which assumed that three more stations in both directions would be completed by 2018, and the next sections to Górce and Bródno stations would be built by 2020. It was assumed then that the construction of 11 metro stations over the course of 6 years would cost around 8 billion PLN. This meant that the metro would probably not decide to build a branch to Białołęka. In August 2014, an environmental decision was issued for the section towards Targówek, and at the end of September for the section in Wola.[11]
