Expansion Plans
Line B is being extended underground further west (2 km) from Los Incas/Parque Chas to EcheverrÃa and Juan Manuel de Rosas (previously named Villa Urquiza) where transfer to the Ferrocarril Mitre will be provided. It is expected to open in 2011.
In the meantime, there is a record of passengers and lack investment, but plans are in the list which includes: installation of a new signal system, acquisition of new cars, construction of a new central workshop for the repair of machinery, widening of platforms, hallways and all areas of pedestrian traffic at stations and at transfer nodes, improvements in transfer centers with other means of transport

Famous quotes containing the words expansion and/or plans:
“Artistic genius is an expansion of monkey imitativeness.”
—W. Winwood Reade (1838–1875)
“When I heard at the close of the day how my name had been receiv’d
with plaudits in the capitol, still it was not a happy night for me
that follow’d,
And else when I carous’d, or when my plans were accomplish’d,
still I was not happy,
But the day when I rose at dawn from the bed of perfect health,
refresh’d, singing, inhaling the ripe breath of autumn,”
—Walt Whitman (1819–1892)
