The network consists of 4 lines, identified by different numbers and colors, with a total network length of , and a total of 113 stations, mostly underground. It has a daily ridership of 1.15 million. The first line, the red one, opened in 1964, the green line opened 5 years later in 1969,〔 the yellow line in 1990,〔 and the lilac line in 2013. A fifth line is currently under construction. Currently Milan Metro system is the first in Northern Italy and Italy for length, number of stations, daily and annual ridership. The architectural project, by Franco Albini, Franca Helg and Bob Noorda, was awarded in 1964 with a Compasso d'oro, the most prestigious award for Design in Italy. == History == The first projects for a subway line in Milan were drawn up in 1914 and 1925, following the examples of underground transport networks in other European cities like London and Paris. Planning proceeded in 1938 for the construction of a system of 7 lines, but this too halted after the start of World War II and due to lack of funds.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.metropolitanamilanese.it/pub/page/it/MM/metropolitane_milano?contentId=904 )〕 On 3 July 1952 the city administration voted for a project of a metro system and on 6 October 1955 a new company, ''Metropolitana Milanese'', was created to manage the construction of the new infrastructure.〔 The project was funded with ₤ 500 million from the municipality and the rest from a loan. The construction site of the first line was opened in ''viale Monte Rosa'' on 4 May 1957.〔 Stations on the new line were designed by Franco Albini and Franca Helg architecture studio, while Bob Noorda designed the signaling.〔 For this project both Albini-Helg and Noorda won the Compasso D'Oro prize. The first section from ''Lotto'' to ''Sesto Marelli'' (21 stations) was opened on 1 November 1964, after 7 years of construction works. The track was long, and the mean distance between the stations was .〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.cityrailways.it/milano-metro-storia/ )〕 In the same year, in April, works on the second line started. Passengers on the network grew constantly through the first years of service, passing from 37,092,315 in 1965 to 61,937,192 in 1969.〔 The green line from Caiazzo to Cascina Gobba (7 stations) opened five years later. During the 1960s and 1970s the network of 2 lines was completed, and both lines had 2 different spurs. In 1978, the lines were already and long respectively, with 28 and 22 stations.〔 The first section of the third line (yellow), with 5 stations, was opened on 3 May 1990 after almost 9 years of construction works. The line opened just before the World Cup. The other 9 stations on Line 3 opened to the southeast in 1991, and northwest to Maciachini Station in 2004. In March 2005 the Line 2 Abbiategrasso station (south branch from Famagosta) and the Line 1 Rho Fiera station opened. The intermediate station of Pero opened on December 2005. A north extension of Line 3 to Comasina (4 stations) and a new south branch on the Line 2 to Assago (2 stations) opened in early 2011. The metro replaced several interurban tramroutes of the original ''Società Trazione Elettrica Lombarda'' (STEL) tramlines. In particular the Line 2 to Gessate. The only remaining suburban tram line to Limbiate is shortened to Comasina, the endpoint of Line 3. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Milan Metro」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
