As of October 8, 2026, train movement is gradually resuming on the blue and green lines of the Kyiv metro. However, the red line remains suspended.
Restoration of Movement on the Blue and Green Lines
According to information published by the Kyiv Metro, train movement is gradually resuming on the blue and green lines. However, the intervals between trains have been increased, which may affect passenger waiting times. As of 5:41 PM, movement on the red line remained suspended.
Reasons for Suspension of Movement
The suspension of train movement on the red line and part of the surface public transport in Kyiv was caused by a drop in voltage in the energy system. This led to temporary difficulties in providing electricity, which, in turn, affected the operation of escalators and other infrastructure elements of the metro.
Further Actions and Information
To ensure passenger transportation in Kyiv, the possibility of operational duplication of the Borshchahivka rapid tram line by buses is being considered. Authorities promise to provide additional information about the restoration of movement and changes in public transport operations in the near future.
