Tehran Subway Expansion Plans Outlined for 2020-21

The development of subway system in the Iranian capital city, Tehran, is a challenging task for urban managers, as officials struggle to make the best out of the least available resources to provide an acceptable subway transportation system for citizens.
Providing an overview of Tehran Metro Company’s development schemes for the current Iranian year (started March 20), Ali Emam, the company’s CEO, said although the lack of financial resources has impeded projects, 11 stations will become operational by the end of the current fiscal year (March 2021), ISNA reported. 
The capital's subway stretches over 220 kilometers and comprises seven lines (1 to 7) with nearly 120 stations. Lines 6 and 7 are yet to become fully operational.
