How much did the U2 extension of the Vienna U-Bahn to Seestadt Aspern cost?
The U2 extension of the Vienna U-Bahn runs 4.2 km from Aspernstraße through Hausfeldstraße and Aspern Nord to the new Seestadt terminus in the Seestadt Aspern development, with a fourth station, An den alten Schanzen, built only as a shell. It was built in just under four years and opened on 5 October 2013. The Austrian Court of Audit gave the forecast total cost as EUR 340.29 million excluding VAT, below the city's 2007 estimate of EUR 408.52 million.
