Plans include the Podilsko-Voskresenska and Troieshchyna-Osokorky lines.

Kyiv will build the fourth and fifth metro lines and open Lvivska Brama station, according to the General Plan of Kyiv.

It is stated that the first construction stage will last 7 years, and during this period 16.4 km of metro lines and 14 new stations are planned to be built.

The Sviatoshyn-Brovary line will be extended from Akademhorodok station toward the Novobelychi railway stop. The Syretsko-Pecherska line will be extended from Syrets station northwest toward the Vynohradar residential district.

On the Obolon-Teremky line, branches will be built from Ipodrom station along the Ring Road toward Lutsenko Street. The plans also include the Podilsko-Voskresenska line — construction from the new Hlybochytska stations to Raduzhna station —and the Troieshchyna-Osokorky line.

The general plan also envisages a second transfer hub between Zoloti Vorota and Teatralna stations. Plans include building second exits at Darnytsia, Vokzalna and Universytet stations, and exits at Lvivska Brama and Telychka stations.

Earlier, the main heating network burst near Lybidska metro station. As a result of the rupture, Ocean Plaza, the capital's second-largest shopping and entertainment complex, was flooded.

On January 15, Kyivteploenergo completed repair work to eliminate the accident.
