The KP “Kiev Metro” explained why in the underpass metro station “Kontraktova ploshcha” dismantled the authentic facing tiles and put the standard tiles in their place.
The old tiles are being replaced because “they are no longer produced and have been badly damaged over 45 years of operation,” report in the press service.
The subway is being repaired as part of the annual plan. Work continues at such stations Chernigovskaya, Hippodrome, Ploshchad Lev Tolstoy, Dorogozhychi, Zhitomirskaya and Kontraktova ploshcha.

“You can find a lot of such places in the city – ceramics or mosaics on the walls of factories, schools, clinics, institutes. These objects do not have protection status, and, accordingly, are being repaired according to general standards. However, we decided to leave small squares on the territory of our stations for the history of the metro. Later, next to it will be placed plates with a brief description and authors of samples “, – said the deputy head of the metro Natalya Makogon.
When will the second exit from Vokzalnaya be built?
Earlier we told, that the station “Vokzalnaya” is one of the busiest in the Kiev metro… At the only entrance, which has served the city for over 60 years, there are huge queues of passengers. This is clearly noticeable at the beginning of autumn, when students and people who come to the capital to work from the suburbs return to Kiev en masse.
The city authorities have been promising to build a second exit from Vokzalnaya for many years. It has even been announced that it will become an interchange when the fourth Podolsko-Vygurovskaya metro line is built.

Last year, the Kiev Metro announced a tender for the development of a project for the second exit from Vokzalnaya, but it never took place. The project cost was then estimated at more than UAH 71 million.
“We announced a tender for the project of the second exit of the Vokzalnaya station. But, alas, it did not take place. The tender has not yet been announced,” the Kiev Metro told the Segodnya website.
