Moskovskaya (Russian: Московская) is a station on both Line 1 and Line 2 line of the Nizhny Novgorod Metro. It was one of the first six stations to open on the line on 20 November 1985.[1][2] It is also the only station that permits transfers from one line to the other. Passengers may also transfer to the main Nizhny Novgorod railway station. Also, the metro station Moskovskaya is a transfer hub to the station of the City Rail Nizhny Novgorod-Moskovsky.
Until 2012, it was the northern terminus of the Avtozavodskaya line and, until the opening of Strelka station in 2018, it was the eastern terminus of the Sormovsko–Meshcherskaya line. Because the line curves westbound after Moskovskaya, it remains the easternmost station on the line.
It is in the Kanavinsky City District. The name comes from the Moskovsky railway station.
