The Kupchinsko-Primorskaya Line (Russian: Купчинско-Примо́рская ли́ния) is a future fifth line of the Saint Petersburg Metro system. It is currently under construction and is planned to be opened in 2008, providing a rapid transit connection to a southern part of Saint Petersburg that is currently only served by buses, trolley buses and streetcars.
Originally, the line was intended to be competed by the late 1990s. However, by 1997, only Sportivnaya and Chkalovskaya stations were completed. With the prospect of completing the rest of the stations in the near future looking dim do to lack of funds, the Metro officials decided to temporarily link up those stations to the existing Pravoberezhnaya Line. Since then, that portion of the line was expanded northward as per original Kupchinsko-Primorskaya line plan. In early 2000s, funding necessary for the construction of the southern portion of the line was secured. The northern portion of the Pravoberezhnaya line is planned to be linked to southern stations in 2008, forming the Kupchinsko-Primorskaya Line.
