    An additional 32 kilometers of lines have been built in recent years, and 21 new stations have been put into operation to expand the metro network. 15 modern metro trains were delivered. New routes ran through the Yashnabad, Mirabad, Sergeli, Yangikhayot, and Yunusabad districts in Tashkent city, which made it easier for residents to travel.
