Saburtalo Line
Tbilisi Metro line
The Saburtalo Line (Georgian: საბურთალოს ხაზი, romanized: saburtalos khazi) is a line of the Tbilisi Metro in Georgia. The line was first opened in 1979,[1] running originally from Station Square, where Tbilisi Central Railway station is located to Delisi and has since extended to the western residential districts of the city, near Tbilisi State University’s X and XI buildings.[2] It is a second line of the system and runs from the east and west direction of Tbilisi, in contrast to the First Line which runs north-south axis of the city. The line is named after Saburtalo,[3] the district, and neighbourhood of Tbilisi, where 5[lower-alpha 1] of 7 stations of this line are located. Alternatively, the line is being referred to simply as 2nd Line.
