Features of M4 Line, Milan

The new M4 Line under construction will connect the city from the East with the Linate Airport terminus, and to south-west with the San Cristoforo terminus.

It will be fully automatic and equipped with platform doors, which means that the entire system will be controlled from a single place in the depot. The high frequency of trains (90 seconds) will ensure hourly capacities of 24-28,000 passengers in each direction of travel. Given the dominant colour used in the décor of the 21 stations and the trains, as well as in the maps, the M4 Line is also called the “Blue Line".
