The Bogotá Metro system represents Colombia’s most ambitious urban transportation project, promising to transform mobility in South America’s third-largest city.
It has been suggested that the track routes of the defunct Bogotá Savannah Railway be utilized for the city's new metro system. Currently Bogotá has no rail service and its public transport system relies on the bus rapid transit system TransMilenio. General Gustavo Rojas Pinilla began the process of contracting the studies of the metro with NYCTA.
Project Overview and Timeline The Bogotá Metro is a rapid transit project under construction since October 2020, with Line 1 projected to be operational in 2028. As of December 2024, construction has reached 46.24% completion, marking significant progress on this transformative infrastructure project.
The Bogotá Metro promises substantial environmental benefits for the capital city. When complete, it could remove over a million cars from the city’s streets every day, significantly reducing air pollution and carbon emissions in one of Latin America’s most congested urban centers.
