Kyiv Metro does not name repair timeline for Chernihivska station after attack

Kyiv Metro officials stated that it is currently impossible to determine exactly when the capital's Chernihivska station, damaged by Russian shelling, will resume operations.

Assessment of damage scale continues

Acting head of Kyiv Metro Andrii Tkachov explained on television that responsible specialists are on site and are analysing the condition of the infrastructure.

«Поки що не можемо прогнозувати (час відновлення роботи станції - ред.). На місці працюють відповідні фахівці, вони оцінюють стан пошкоджень. Там пошкоджені, і дуже значно, колії, але обладнання і запасні частини в наявності, тому максимально швидко будуть проведені всі роботи» (We cannot yet predict [the time for the station to resume operations - ed.]. The relevant specialists are working on site, they are assessing the state of the damage. The tracks are damaged, and significantly so, but the equipment and spare parts are available, so all work will be carried out as quickly as possible), Tkachov noted.

Potential opening dates

Tkachov added that as of today, it remains unknown exactly when the station will be reopened to passengers.
