The length of the tunnel between the aforementioned stations is 1.18 kilometers and the diameter is 6.04 meters.
The assembling of the inner reinforced concrete structures in the tunnel is done using rubble sealing.
Petrenko said that the connection of the stations with the right tunnel will take place in ten days.
As Ukrainian News earlier reported, on November 20, KyivMetroBud said that the completion and the opening of three subway stations from the Lybidska station towards Teremky housing estate will be impossible in December due to the debts to the company for the performed works.
In July 2005, the Kyivmetrobud company launched the construction of the subway section from the Lybidska towards the Teremky housing estate.
A 3.8-kilometer line with three stations is planned for construction in this segment: the Demiivska, Holosiivska, and Vasylkivska stations.
The section under construction will be 20 - 30 meters deep, with 6 to 14 meters of soil above the tunnel.
