The project is divided into two major segments: the South Section (1 Mai \u2013 Tokyo), which has reached a 61% completion rate for the resistance structure, while the North Section (Tokyo \u2013 Otopeni Airport) has reached a coefficient of 26%.<\/p>\n<p>On the South Section, works are focused on tunnel drilling and station structures. The TBM Sf\u00e2nta Maria, operational since April 9, continues drilling between Gara B\u0103neasa and Pia\u021ba Montreal, while TBM Sf\u00e2nta Ana has already completed 2 km of tunnel. The most advanced station in this lot is Aeroport B\u0103neasa, with 82% of the structure completed, followed by Pia\u021ba Montreal (75%), Expozi\u021biei (74%), Gara B\u0103neasa (73%), and Tokyo (64%). At Pajura station, the progress is 51%, and at the 1 Mai connection point, works have reached 31%, with utility relocations and the execution of elements for the junction with Line 4 currently underway.<\/p>\n<p>The North Section, with a length of 7.6 km and 6 stations, is being executed by the G\u00fclermak \u2013 Somet association, with the contract signed in May 2023. Ion I.C. Br\u0103tianu station is the most advanced on this section, at 70%, currently in the finishing and waterproofing phase. Other stations under construction include Otopeni and Aeroport Otopeni, both at 32%, Washington (15%), Paris (10%), and Bruxelles (5%). Works on this segment currently focus on utility diversion, the execution of barrettes, and diaphragm walls. Upon full completion of the project, Line 6 will complete the transport infrastructure to the capital&#8217;s main airport hub.<\/p>\n<h3>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h3>\n<p><strong>What is the current status of the South Section of Metro Line 6?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The South Section (1 Mai \u2013 Tokyo) has reached a 61% completion rate for its resistance structure.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Which station is the most advanced on the North Section?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Ion I.C.
