Yesterday morning Michelle Bachelet, the president of Chile, announced a new line for the Metro de Santiago (Santiagos Subway service). The new "Línea 6" (L6) will be finished by 2014, but the presentation video and the press announcement explained pretty well the route of it, and the combinations with trains and other subway lines, so I decided to map it now and tagged it with construction=yes in the line and the stations, also putting a note to the station names with something that reads like "(to be opened in 2014)".

It is really nice to see the location of the stations and the proporcion of the line in a more realistic scale (OSM Vs Metro de Santiago Maps).

The Press Release (in Spanish): http://www.metrosantiago.cl/metro_ciudad_detalle.php?c=8757150decbd89b0f5442ca3db4d0e0e

The right way to tag it would be railway=construction + construction=, but anyway, yet again OSM will be the first to show a new feature :D
