History
Line 5 began construction in 2007 with Bello Monte station being one of ten planned stations on the line, but it was the only new station to open in 2015.[2]
The station was predicted to serve 80,000 people daily when it opened.[3]

gollark: I don't think infecting everyone at once would be very smart. Health systems would be overwhelmed and many people who might otherwise not get it would.
gollark: Ignoring epidemiological implications for a moment, I think that in general having a big fraction of the population unable to work instead of a small one is... well, worse, since fewer people can work and less stuff can get done.
gollark: That's worse?
gollark: ... no?
