Line F is a planned addition to the Buenos Aires Underground. In 2019, the government of Buenos Aires was looking for a group to create a plan of the line, but this study was cancelled in 2022. The city decided to create a study with their own staff, which is still underway as of 2024. The estimated cost of the project has risen from 800 million dollars, to 2 billion USD. The layout, developed in two stages, will connect with all existing Underground lines, seek to alleviate congestion on Line C, and improve connectivity between the south and north of the city. The inauguration of the first section is scheduled for 2031 or later, with construction to begin in 2026.
Overview
Permission to construct the line was originally granted in 2001, In the 2019 tender, eight of the thirteen stations were connected to other lines on the network.
Line E ghost stations
In 2006, it was considered whether the two Line E ghost stations (San José vieja and Constitución) could be used as the southern point of Line F, considering they overlapped the line's trajectory. However, it was later decided that Line F would use a completely new tunnel with new stations given the frequency the line is expected to have.
