Once in a month excursions will be held at the underground stations of St. Petersburg. Perhaps during the summer period the excursions will be conducted more often.
The residents of St. Petersburg can visit a chosen underground station as agreed upon with the workers. Each time the excursion will be in different stations. There is a possibility to watch the full cycle of underground operating at night: including tokens unloading and launching to the platform. Besides there is a possibility to visit the computer room under the escalators, to watch the principle of escalators operation, switch on and switch off the mechanism. On the average the excursion lasts two hours. At the beginning of April such activity has been conducted at the underground station «Pushkinskaya», the excursion lasted three hours.
