The progressive introduction of U-Bahn services over several short sections of line will give a total of 13.7 km in operation by 1978. All lines will be equipped for automatic train control and trains will run with a single operator. Rolling stock deliveries are now well in hand and two-car sets are being handed over at two-weekly intervals. A novel feature of the system is use in station areas of plastic sleepers laid without ballast.
