Looks like a big circular, with an interchange with Line 10 at Los Castillos, as well as interchanges to the C-4 and C-5 Cercan�as trains in places like Getafe Fuenlabrada, Mostoles, Alcorcon, etc.

What Paul said is correct. It also goes through the significant municipality of Legan�s. It looks pretty cool and will no doubt help get people closer by 'my neck of the woods' as I live out this direction.
It's kind of a bummer that it doesn't connect with Villaviciosa de Od�n. We're smaller than M�stoles and Alcorc�n, but still a good sized community (pushing 20,000 more or less).
It is a circular line Jenny, but it's 'circle' runs outside of the Metro system itself and only services the Southwestern region of Madrid, but as jer said, it effects a pretty big part of the city's population (about a million...)
It should be a pretty good thing in the long run though.

I really do have to agree with you that the METRO keeps surprising us. I can't wait to see what the next project will be. You know that they also have something else in the works.
I love public transportation in Madrid. It is the BEST.

Finally, the MoFo Metro Sur will be open!!! They said Feb, then March, and I work in Alcorcon (aka end of earth) and I will so happy when it opens!!I, along with Jer, will be riding around in circles (jejeje) the day it opens! Thanks for the info, I was wondering when the REAL date of Line 12 (in case you all wanted to know the number, and the color- puke brown) would open! :cheers:
