| Comments |
This "subway" is really a "pre-metro", a series
of tram lines coming together underground for several
stations.
Under the Pegasus plan (approved in 2004) several tram
lines will be built to the eastern suburbs, using some of the
tunnels abandoned in the 1980s, including stations at Opera,
Astrid, Drink and
Morkhoven.
