EVRAZ ZSMK produced and shipped 100-meter rails for the needs of the St. Petersburg metro. The volume of the batch sent to the address of the State Unitary Enterprise “Petersburg Metro” amounted to 310 tons. Now further supplies of long rails for the development of the subway are being worked out.
Laying of 100-meter rails produced at the Kuzbass plant allows to significantly reduce the number of welded joints. Due to this, the metro increases the safety of passenger traffic, prolongs the operational life of the track and reduces the cost of its maintenance and repair.
Our rails create a new standard for millions of passengers of the St. Petersburg metro. Due to the smaller number of joints, a smoother and quieter train ride is ensured, which makes metro trips more comfortable, said EVRAZ Vice President, Head of Siberia Division Pavel Sinyaev.
