The New Metro Line is Needed
The title of one of the articles in the May 9 Budapest supplement questioned the necessity of the new metro. László Pintér, a certified transportation engineer, writes that the city needs a means of transportation in the south Buda region that will solve the connection between this part of the city and the downtown area and will create attractive public transportation with appropriate quality of service.
László Pintér disputes the argument according to which the tram system or the suburban railroad system should be developed instead of the metro. According to Pintér's opinion, the construction of the metro is the only solution to eliminating the congested surface traffic that loads the center of the Eleventh District.
