This is a list of the stations of Budapest Metro , operating in Budapest , Hungary , with the dates of opening (and ''closure''). Termini and interchange stations are in bold. LINES Under construction: M1 LINE (MILLENNIUM UNDERGROUND) Built in 1896 (it was the first underground on the European continent), extended in 1973 . It is usually marked yellow. According to schedule, it runs along in 11 minutes.
M2 LINE (EAST-WEST LINE) Built in 1970 , extended in 1973 . It is usually marked red. According to schedule, it runs along in 18 minutes.
M3 LINE (NORTH-SOUTH LINE) First section in 1977 , then expansions in 1980 , 1981 , 1984 and 1990 . It is usually marked blue. According to schedule, it runs along in 31 minutes.
There is a planned extension towards Káposztásmegyer in the west and Ferihegy (Budapest airport) in the southeast, possibly by 2010. M4 LINE (NORTHEAST-SOUTHWEST) UNDER CONSTRUCTION Line M4 has been originally scheduled to be built by around 2005 , but, as there were numerous political debates over it, not to mention a number of civilian protests against the building of the tunnel for the line at certain parts of the city, building has only started in 2005 and the completion date has been re-scheduled to 2009 or 2010 . By November 2005, some of the squares and roads that will cover the tunnel and the termini have been partly prepared. The dates below refer to the completion dates according to plan.
Note: the name with the question mark is also the name of an existing underground station of M3, so it will probably be renamed. There are plans to extend the line towards Újpalota in the east, and towards Budaörs in the west. M5 LINE (NORTH-SOUTH), PLANNED FOR 2009 Metro line 5, ''Észak-déli Regionális Gyorsvasút'' (North-South Regional Rapid Railway; provisional name), is planned to be a Suburban Railway s' connector line, meant to replace and connect the lines of the existing suburban railways between Szentendre , Csepel and Ráckeve . It will cross Budapest downtown, and provide connection for the railway stations in the city. Its building is planned to be started in Autumn 2007 and its first section between ''Astoria'' and ''Lágymányosi híd'' (south) to be functional by 2009 . It will probably have the following stations (except for the termini, only those within Budapest are included):
