Dunayskaya (Russian: Дунайская) is a Saint Petersburg Metro station under construction on the Frunzensko-Primorskaya Line (Line 5) of the Saint Petersburg Metro. It is scheduled to open in late 2018 as a part of the extension of the line to the south from Mezhdunarodnaya. The extension will also include Prospekt Slavy and Shushary stations. Dunayskaya will be between Prospect Slavy and Shushary.^[2][3]

The station is in the Balkansky Okrug of the Frunzensky District of Saint Petersburg at the corner of Bukharestskaya Ulitsa and Dunaysky Prospekt. It takes its name from Dunaysky Prospekt, which is named for the Danube River.

Design and Layout

Dunayskaya is a three-span, shallow-column station with two side platforms.^[4]

The theme of the station is the “Blue Danube” and the color blue is featured throughout.^[5] The interior is decorated with stained glass with images of cities along the Danube, including Vienna, Budapest, Belgrade, Linz, and Regensburg.

There are two station lobbies. The north lobby is at the corner of Bukharestskaya Ulitsa and Dunaysky Prospekt, while the south lobby is at Bukharestskaya Ulitsa and Ulitsa Yaroslava Gasheka (Jaroslav Hašek Street).
