History

Closed for reconstruction as part of the route "Ivan Lepse"- "Hnata Yury" on June 13, 2009.[1] During the reconstruction, an arched ceiling was built over the platforms and tracks and the entrance pavilions were renovated, as well as a track connecting the branches from Gnata Yuri to the Kiltseva Doroga station and to Mykhailivska Borshchahivka. On October 16, 2010 the station of high-speed trams was opened after reconstruction, trams of routes № 1 and № 3 stop here.[2]
