Claim type 5 of 10

Near metro

Being near a station is not the same as being near your destination by metro.

“Next to the metro”

What it usually measures

Proximity to a station, sometimes a station on a line that does not go where you need to go.

What it leaves out

  • Whether the station is operational today.
  • Whether the line serves your office, and how many changes you need.
  • The wait for the train, set by the published headway at your hour.
  • The walk or feeder ride at the other end.

Questions to ask

  1. Is this station open today, and on which line?
  2. How many interchanges to reach my office?
  3. What is the trip time door to door, including both walks and the wait?

Check it yourself

  • Make the full trip once at your hour: gate, walk, platform, train, interchange, exit, walk to your desk.

How Claim Check handles it

Claim Check builds the full metro trip from the published timetable or frequency, adds both walking legs and the wait, and shows the station's status as its agency publishes it.

Is a “near metro” claim wrong?

Not necessarily. Most claims are real measurements under particular conditions. The point is to find out which conditions, and whether they are yours.

Will you tell me which projects use this claim?

No. We never name or rank projects, developers, brokers or portals. Claim Check results are private to the person who runs them.
