At four stations of the Troitskaya metro line — “Vavilovskaya,” “Akademicheskaya,” “Krymskaya,” and “ZIL” — specialists installed 11 sensor-based navigation elements. They were placed on the platforms and in the vestibules.
“We are developing a digital navigation project under the supervision of Sergey Sobyanin. At the stations of the Troitskaya line, 130 innovative navigation elements have been installed with the capability of remote information updates within one minute. The capital remains the world leader in the scale of digital navigation implementation in the metro,” noted the Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport and Industry.
Thanks to the touch navigation elements, passengers can adjust the scale of graphic images, learn about changes in transport operation, and build routes considering travel time and optimal transfers. For convenience, the system will offer several alternative options. In addition, when clicking on a specific ground transport stop on the map, the passenger will see the route numbers of trams, buses, and trolleybuses that depart from it.
Touch-sensitive steles also provide information about the station’s equipment with escalators, ramps, and elevators. Each exit is assigned one of the accessibility statuses, indicated by a color indicator: green means compliance with barrier-free principles, gray indicates the presence of restrictions.
Modern navigation elements reduce the level of information noise. All data is displayed on demand — it is enough to select the topics of interest to the passenger. These include baggage carriage rules, tariffs, services, contacts, as well as the schedule of the first and last train departures.
The Vavilovskaya, Akademicheskaya, Krymskaya, and ZIL stations of the Troitskaya metro line were opened to passengers in September 2025 — their commissioning completed the work on the first phase of the new radius. The construction of the facilities was carried out by the Moscow City Urban Development Policy and Construction Complex.
