	==History==
	In 1980 a new general plan for the development of Leningrad metro was adopted, and two axis where given priority, one that would connect the south-eastern right-bank districts, and then cross the city centre on an east-west axis, and the second on a northwest southeast axis, both connecting large residential massifs, previously served only by ]es, ]es and ]s.

			The line is named after the Primorsky district and Russian Bolshevik commander ].
	To accelerate access to the metro, it was decided to superimpose the two projects, and first have line 4 cross the centre and continue northeast (Primorsky radius), and only then for the line to divide and the southeastern Frunzensky radius would follow the Bukharestskaya street all the way to the city's southern borders. The project was to be completed by the start of the new century. However the financial problems following the Collapse of the Soviet Union, left the metro construction almost bankrupt, plus a significant amount of funds had to be allocated following the 1995 flood of the ].

			== History ==
	Thus following the 1990 opening of ], the first stage of the Primorsky radius was inaugurated in 1997 (] and ]), and the line reached the Primorsky district only in 1999 with the stations ] and ]. Furthermore to conserved funds, the station Admiralteyskaya was left out. The final extension came in 2005 with the station Komendatsky Prospekt, still operated by line 4. Construction in the southeastern direction began in early 1990s, but was constantly halted, fully resuming only circa 2004.
	==Present project==
	In December 2008, the line officially appeared with the new Frunzensky radius started by two stations: Zvenigorodskaya and Volkovskaya. Shortly, stations north of Sadovaya will separate from line 4 and be part of line 5, and the line will then have eight stations. In early 2010, they will be joined by two stations completed on existing track: Admiralteyskaya and Obvodny Kanal. In 2011 they will be followed by further two stations: Bukharestskaya and Mezhdunarodnaya. The project will be completed in 2012 will the Prospekt Slavy station, which will be a shallow-level station, afterwards three more stations are planned: Dunayskaya, Balkanskaya and Yuzhnaya to be introduced by 2015, followed by a depot.

			=== History of construction ===
	On the northern end of the line, three stations are planned: Dolgoozernaya and Kolomyazhskaya, also followed by a new depot. Thus once completed the line will have 18 stations, and will be in excess of 25 kilometres long.
			Expansion plans that included the route of the current Line 5 first appeared in the 1980s. Construction began in 1987, but the collapse of the Soviet Union and the resultant financial crash forced the city to freeze the construction of the Frunzensky branch (the section south of ]). Sadovaya, which opened in 1991, is the oldest station on the line.

			City officials decided to continue building the Primorsky branch (the section north of Sadovaya). ] and ] opened in 1997, ] and ] opened in 1999, and ] opened in 2005. The Metro incorporated these stations into the Line 4 (Pravoberezhnaya) once the Frunzensky branch was completed.

It has 15 stations covering a total length of 26.2 kilometres (16.3 mi). Although it opened on 20 December 2008, parts of the line are considerably older. At its official opening in 2008, it included only two stations that opened concurrently with the line. On 7 March 2009, the Metro incorporated six existing stations of Line 4 (Pravoberezhnaya) into Line 5, expanding it to nine stations.

Admiralteyskaya station, which is the deepest station in Russia and one of the deepest in the world, at 86 metres, opened on this line 2011.

The line is named after the Primorsky district and Russian Bolshevik commander Mikhail Frunze.

History

History of construction

Expansion plans that included the route of the current Line 5 first appeared in the 1980s. Construction began in 1987, but the collapse of the Soviet Union and the resultant financial crash forced the city to freeze the construction of the Frunzensky branch (the section south of Sadovaya). Sadovaya, which opened in 1991, is the oldest station on the line.

City officials decided to continue building the Primorsky branch (the section north of Sadovaya). Sportivnaya and Chkalovskaya opened in 1997, Staraya Derevnya and Krestovsky Ostrov opened in 1999, and Komendantsky Prospekt opened in 2005. The Metro incorporated these stations into the Line 4 (Pravoberezhnaya) once the Frunzensky branch was completed.

Subsequent to the formal opening of Line 5, and the connection of the Primorsky and Fruzensky branches in March 2009, Obvodny Kanal station was opened on the existing open section of line on 30 December 2010. The long-awaited Admiralteyskaya station, serving many of the historic and tourist sites in the city, was opened on 28 December 2011, also on an existing open section of line. Prior to this date, most trains bypassed this partially completed station, save for a few trains that dropped off and picked up construction workers.

Rolling Stock

The line currently has trains of 81-540/541 and the .2 and .5 modifications running since the opening.
