The tram line reorganization was initiated in order to eliminate the need for transfer stops for the inhabitants traveling from Kryvyi Rih's northern neighborhoods to the southern end of town, near the ArcelorMittal Kryvyi Rih plant.[1]

The Kiltse KMK station is located above ground, with platforms running on either side of the metrotram's tracks. A reversing loop is located directly behind the station to allow trams to change course and travel in the opposite direction.
