In operation
The Teano station is located in the green area adjacent to Via Teano at the intersection with Viale Partenope.
The project of the station has taken into account the future branching of Line C towards Serenissima, known as “Line C1,” which has determined the arrangement of the overlapping platforms and the construction of an additional structure where the connections with the future C1 branching are planned.
The underground portion of the station has an almost rectangular footprint with dimensions of 107.50 x 30 m and a depth of approximately 30 m (33 m in the depression of the drainage basin). At the atrium level alone, the station has an “L” shape because the deep station structure is joined by the connecting corridor of the atrium to the exits on Viale Partenope, with an excavation depth of about 7 m and dimensions of 34 x 85 m in plan, excluding the ramps. The C1 branching structure adjacent to the station has a flared shape with a length of 89 m and a variable width between 13 and 31.5 m and an excavation depth of about 30 m. The initial diaphragm walls of the C1 branching were constructed using a grab bucket, later replaced with an hydro-mill. The depth of the diaphragm walls is 40 m for the station structure and the C1 branching and 19 m for the exit structure under Viale Partenope.

Station Levels
The above-ground structure of the entrance area, with a plan dimension of approximately 40 x 36 m and variable height ranging from 4.5 m to about 8.90 m, is constructed with a framework consisting of a double set of metal beams supported by metallic pillars placed on two sides. The roof is made of white-painted steel, enclosing the continuous steel and glass facade. The station is developed over 6 underground levels, in addition to the roof and foundation slabs. There is a lobby level, a first technical level, the platform level for the even track with its sub-platform, a second technical level, and the platform level for the odd track.
The station structure was constructed using the top-down method until the bottom slab. The completion of the station was carried out from bottom to top, including the installation of the waterproofing layer between the diaphragm and the inner lining before the construction of the latter.

Station Entrances
The station has four entrances, with two on the platforms of Viale Partenope, symmetrically positioned relative to the axis of the road. Each of these entrances is equipped with an escalator and a fixed staircase in series with each other. The other two entrances are located at the front and rear of the station’s above-ground structure, connecting the street level to the atrium level via a fixed staircase and an elevator.
The original surface arrangement of the station included a rethinking of the adjacent road system in anticipation of constructing an underground parking lot and an at-grade parking area for the station. The abandonment of this project meant that the external works were limited to the areas affected by the construction, with a restoration of the pre-construction state and the creation of access roads to the above-ground structure.

End Benefit and Sustainability
In the perspective of the future construction of the extension of Line C towards Serenissima “Line C1,” the Teano station represents a crucial interchange point that contributes to the enhancement of the network effect in urban mobility in the Capital city.
Highlights
Architecture
The design of the Teano station was entrusted to the architectural firm Archigroup sas. The defining element of the station is undoubtedly the continuous facade of the above-ground structure with its visible curved roof from Teano Street. It also serves as a reference point for those coming from Viale Partenope and provides natural light to the underlying atrium. The exits on Viale Partenope are defined by reinforced concrete walls and signaling totems covered with beveled travertine slabs laid in a continuous pattern.
The finishes of the station follow the standards of Metro C stations. The flooring is in anthracite-colored porcelain stoneware, and the cladding is in white glass, both topped with the signal band. The atrium floor features a spacious area beneath the glass roof, designed as an exhibition space for temporary or permanent cultural events.

This space is visually identified with a painted plaster finish. In the atrium, there is a diffuser suspended ceiling consisting of pre-painted white aluminum panels arranged in rectangular modules. These panels incorporate multifunctional elements containing lighting fixtures for direct and indirect illumination, sound distribution systems, cameras, speakers, etc. Some portions are made of gypsum board. Similar diffuser ceilings are installed along the escalators with adjacent modules. The platform ceilings, on the other hand, are constructed with curved-shaped elements made of pre-painted white aluminum sheeting. The platform’s signal band integrates lighting fixtures and cameras.
DESIGN IN PROGRESS THE FUTURE OF THE LINE
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
The Line C under construction includes 3 stations: Porta Metronia, Colosseo – Fori Imperiali, and Venezia. These stations will enter the heart of Rome and will allow the enjoyment of the artifacts found in the excavations thanks to the planned museum setups. The Colosseo station will also be the junction between Line C and the already operational Line B of the Rome metro, expanding the network effect of the capital’s mobility.
The Line C currently in operation connects the southeastern suburbs to the San Giovanni station, a transfer point with Line A and the first example in Rome of a museum station. The route continues through 22 stations.
DESIGN IN PROGRESS
The Venezia – Clodio/Mazzini route will run through stations Chiesa Nuova, San Pietro, Ottaviano, which is the second interchange node of Line C with Line A, and Clodio/Mazzini.
FUTURE DEVELOPMENTS
As a possible opportunity to extend Line C, the Farnesina – Clodio/Mazzini route is in the preliminary design phase by the Client. The project under study includes the construction of two stations: Auditorium and Farnesina. The first will be located near the Auditorium Parco della Musica and the Palazzetto dello Sport; the second will allow a quicker connection to important places for the city such as the Foro Italico, the Olympic Stadium, as well as the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Institutes of Public Administration.

San Giovanni
22 Stations in operation
The San Giovanni Station plays a fundamental role in the construction of Line C, especially because it represents the first interchange node with the existing Line A. The project underwent several evolutions following the results of archaeological investigations. The discovery of ancient structures to be preserved, up to a depth of about 18-20 meters from the ground level, led the Special Superintendence for the Archaeological Heritage of Rome to prescribe the impossibility of carrying out ground consolidations from the ground level, favoring open-air excavations with archaeological methods in the backfill soils, up to about 19 meters deep, excluding the realization of mechanized excavations for the construction of line tunnels in the section between San Giovanni Station and Amba Aradam/Ipponio Station.
