The Constantinoupoli Proastikos (Greek: Προαστιακός Κωνσταντινούπολης), commonly named simply Proastiakos (Greek: Προαστιακός), is a hybrid commuter rail and rapid transit system serving Constantinoupoli and its suburbs. It acts as a combined city-centre underground rail system and suburbs-to-city-centre commuter rail. In the city centre it acts as a faster counterpart of the Constantinoupoli Metro, having fewer stops.
