Line 10 (Naples Metro)
Line 10 (Italian: ''Linea dieci'') of Metropolitana di Napoli is a proposed rapid transit line in the Italian city of Naples, also reaching the adjacent city of Afragola. History In July 2003, the City of Naples adopted a plan for a line (''Metro of Casoria'') that would have connected the city centre (Piazza Cavour, connecting with Lines 1 and 2) to Naples International Airport at Capodichino (connecting with line 1), the neighboring municipality of Casoria and the then-planned Napoli Afragola railway station in the municipality of Afragola. In July 2020, plans for the line were reactivated, with construction on this line possibly beginning as soon as 2021, and is expected to generate 150,000 daily passengers, or 43 million annually.

Rapid Transit
Rapid transit or mass rapid transit (MRT), also known as heavy rail or metro, is a type of high-capacity public transport generally found in urban areas. A rapid transit system that primarily or traditionally runs below the surface may be called a subway, tube, or underground. Unlike buses or trams, rapid transit systems are railways (usually electric railway, electric) that operate on an exclusive right-of-way (transportation), right-of-way, which cannot be accessed by pedestrians or other vehicles, and which is often grade-separated in tunnels or on elevated railways. Modern services on rapid transit systems are provided on designated lines between rapid transit station, stations typically using electric multiple units on rail tracks, although some systems use guided rubber tires, magnetic levitation (''maglev''), or monorail. The stations typically have high platforms, without steps inside the trains, requiring custom-made trains in order to minimize gaps between train a ...
