Naukova (Ukrainian: Наукова, ^ⓘ) is a station on Kharkiv Metro's Oleksiivska Line.

History

The station was opened on May 6, 1995. The project at the time was called "Lenin Avenue" which is also the name of a major and popular road in Kharkiv. The current name of this street is "Naukova Street"; "Naukova" - which means "Scientific" because of the large number of educational institutions and research institutes in the area of exits from the station.

Before the launch of the second stage of the Oleksiivska Line on August 21, 2004, it was the terminal station, and also near the entrance to the metro there was a terminal stop for trolleybuses (mines No. 8, No. 38), (No. 2 - Unfolded on Danilevsky Street). After the opening of the metro stations "Botanichnyi Sad", "23 Serpnia", "Oleksiivska", "Peremoha" route 2 was extended to Oleksiivska, routes 8 and 38 were canceled.

Description

It has a column-type station, shallow, with two lobbies. The bunk, and second floor balconies are supported by columns. Balconies and columns are faced with white marble. The walls around the train tracks are brown.
