The stations’ design honors the rich craftsmanship traditions of the city, metallurgy and manufacturing through the steel entrance pavilions, each of them situated within a new public plaza, which provides an easily recognizable landmark that marks the access to the metro line. The sculpted entrances feature structural shells made from recycled steel from local foundries.
All of Dnipro’s three stations are expected to provide passengers with complete services in 2025.
