Subway stations around St. Petersburg start opening again after the Victory Day events. People can use Ploshchad Vosstaniya, Ploshchad Aleksandra Nevskogo, Mayakovskaya, Nevsky Prospekt, Gostiny Dvor, and Admiralteyskaya stations once more. Metro officials also opened the connection between Mayakovskaya and Ploshchad Vosstaniya stations. These areas closed earlier because of the Immortal Regiment march near Nevsky Prospekt. City leaders had shut down parts of the transit system for safety during the 80th Victory celebrations.
The subway changes helped manage crowds during the major holiday events downtown. Officials closed some stations completely and limited others to exits only during peak parade times. Many travelers found alternate routes or waited until stations reopened in the afternoon. Regular train schedules resumed across all affected lines as parade activities finished. Most visitors heading home from festivities can travel normally through the city center.
