Billed as Europe’s most ambitious infrastructure project, the line, which runs under the capital, was supposed to open in December 2018, but was delayed shortly before the launch by problems with testing and the completion of signaling work. It is expected to carry about 500,000 passengers a day and alleviate pressure on the Victorian-era metro network, the Underground or Tube. An initial budget of around 15 billion pounds has risen to 17.6 billion pounds.
Among the remaining tasks are building and testing the software to integrate the train operating systems with signaling systems; testing station and tunnel systems; and running train trials.
