Moskovskaya (Russian: Московская) is a station on both Line 1 and Line 2 line of the Nizhny Novgorod Metro. It was one of the first six stations to open on the line on 20 November 1985.[1][2] It is also the only station that permits transfers from one line to the other. Passengers may also transfer to the Nizhny Novgorod railway station.
Until 2012, it was the northern terminus of the Avtozavodskaya line and will cease to be the eastern terminus of the Sormovsko–Meshcherskaya line in mid-2018 with the opening of Strelka station. Because the line curves westbound after Moskovskaya, it will remain the most eastern station on the line.
The station is in the Kanavinsky district. The name comes from the Moskovsky railway station.
Entrances and interchanges
The station has two underground vestibules for ingress and egress of passengers. Exit from the south-west hall leads to a long underground passage to the Moskovsky railway station and to the Moscow highway. On both sides of the station are stairs and escalators. Since November 4, 2012, the station is located transfer bridge from Line 1 to Line 2. One of the entrances is located next to the Revolution Square. Another entrance to the station was built in the building of the Central Department Store.[3]
