Subway to Link 1 More South Tehran District

Tehran Metro will be extended to Eslamshahr, a working district in the southwest, to help residents commute easier and reduce the traffic congestion. Construction will commence next week.
The subway so far comprises seven lines with 100 stations (lines 3, 6 and 7 are yet to be completed). 
The nearest subway station is 17km from the central areas of Eslamshahr county. This has made daily travel a difficult task for the people who work or study in other faraway parts of the overcrowded province.
County Mayor Hossein Tala says, “To address the issue, Eslamshahr Municipality wants to extend Line 3 of the subway another 15km from Azadegan Junction. Work will be completed in three years.”
