Abstract: This paper is written to introduce the application of the project management life cycle to the infrastructure projects (metro construction project as a case study). Metro construction should technically and economically be optimized to achieve maximum efficiency. In this regard, the selection of a project management life cycle methodology is very important to achieve these project objectives. Underground constructions in urban regions, such as metro construction, have been largely used for extending daily human life into underground spaces. Therefore, the recognition of the complex elements of a metro construction can play a significant role in its project management and planning. This study aims to investigate these complexities in subway construction. This may develop the possibility of high predictability for these challenges. As metro projects are also urban underground projects, both internal and external issues are studied, and their impacts on project management are discussed. It is concluded that exceptional differences in the management and planning of these constructions is that combined internal and external complexities are carried out simultaneously.
