Metroul din București, copilul de 47 de ani rămas cu 3.000 de lei în cont, s-ar putea opri pe 16 septembrie. "Părinții" lui s-au bătut pe el până l-au adus în comă • Știri București

The Bucharest Metro, inaugurated on November 16, 1979, was a project initiated by Ceaușescu, involving extensive collaboration among various ministries and construction units. Despite its initial success, the metro system has faced ongoing disputes between the City Hall and the Ministry of Transport regarding its management. Recent years have seen financial struggles, with Metrorex lacking sufficient funds for salaries and facing penalties from contractors. The construction of new lines, particularly towards Otopeni Airport, has been slow, with significant delays and budget issues. The current fare does not cover operational costs, leading to reliance on state subsidies, which have been insufficient. As of now, the metro operates with reduced train availability and mounting debts, raising concerns about its future viability.
