Metro hours in Moscow
- As the Moscow Metro reports on their official website, all its stations work from 5:30 in the morning to 1:00 in the morning.
- However, it is worth considering that the opening and closing time of some stations depends on the day of the week and the number of the month, as well as on the features of the location of these stations.
- So, for example, from the station the exhibition center the first train leaves at 7:00 in the morning, and the last one at 23:00 p.m.
- The same applies to Taurcenter stations, Timiryazevskaya, Akademika Korolev Street, Milashenkova Street and Sergey Eisenstein Street. The first trains from these stations are also sent at 7:00 sutra and at 23:00 in the evening.
Train movement interval in the Moscow metro
- The interval of train movements is a period of time between the departure of the previous train and the arrival of the next.
- The intervals of movement in the Moscow metro are on average about 2.5 minutes.
- The most minimum interval (from 1 to 2 minutes) is installed during peak hours - from 8:00 to 10:00 and from 16:00 to 19:00.
- At lunchtime, the average period of time between trains is 3 minutes.
- Also, the interval of movement in the subway depends on the workload and popularity of the station. For example, the exhibition and international trains even at the peak set off from the stations only every 5-6 minutes. At other, not very loaded stations, intervals can be about 4-5 minutes.
- The train movement interval is always displayed on a special board near the clock. The countdown on the interval display is carried out in the opposite direction - from sending the last train to the arrival of the next.
Metro of Moscow: Increased movement intervals
- Increased traffic intervals in the Moscow Metro are installed in hours close to the opening and closing of stations. Thus, from 5:30 to 6:30 in the morning, as well as from 23:00 to 1:00 in the Moscow metro the most maximum time intervals dominate-up to 7-10 minutes.
- The intervals between trains on weekends are also increasing.
How much does the Moscow metro close: transitions and entrances?
- At 1:00, all entrances in the subway are closed - at this time you can only leave the stations. At 1:00 all escalators are also turned off.
- Being in the metro at 1:00 in the city center, you can still get to the destination, as some trains go on the last flight after 1:00. For example, the last metro station sets off from the Pyatnitskoye highway at 1:04, and from the Aleksandrovsky Garden station at 1:08. In addition, many trains connecting the outskirts of the city cross the central stations at 1:20 or 1:40 nights.
