SESC-Pompeia (São Paulo Metro)


SESC-Pompeia will be one of the future stations of São Paulo Metro and will belong to Line 6-Orange, which construction is currently paralyzed. In its first phase, with of extension, Line 6 should connect Brasilândia, in the North Side, to São Joaquim station of Line 1-Blue. Later, the line should connect Rodovia dos Bandeirantes to the borough of Cidade Líder, in the East Side.
The station will be located in the confluence between Avenida Pompeia and Rua Venância Aires, where it will attend Allianz Parque and Bourbon Shopping Mall, situated between the districts of Barra Funda and Perdizes.
The construction of the station began in 2016, when the opening date was estimated to mid-2020. Later, Governor Geraldo Alckmin promised the opening of the first phase of the line to 2020, time which was discarded due to a year of delay in the financing of the Federal Savings Bank, which would be used for the expropriations. In June 2016, the opening of the line was estimated for 2021, time kept in October 2017, when the resume of the construction was announced for the beginning of 2018. Currently, the construction is suspended, due to the involvement of the construction companies of the Move São Paulo consortium in Operation Car Wash, which caused them to not get the financing of R$ 5.5 billions with the Brazilian Development Bank for the continuity of the construction. The State Government of São Paulo is currently in negotiations with international companies, including Spanish Acciona and Chinese China Railway Construction Corporation.
