The NA60+ experiment, which has been proposed as a fixed target experiment at the CERN SPS, is designed to study the phase diagram of the strongly interacting matter at high baryochemical potential by performing precision studies of thermal dimuons, heavy quark and strangeness production in Pb-Pb collisions at center-of-mass energies ranging from 5 to 17 GeV. The progress of the R&D and the key points of the NA60+ physics program will be described.
