Name

Its name owes to the location near the Shchyolkovo highway.

Building

It was built at 8 metres (26 ft) below the ground to the standardized column tri-span design, which was commonly used from the 1960s till 1990s. The pillars are faced with dark green marble. The walls were originally tiled by yellow and black ceramic tiles, but a modern metalloplastic cladding was applied in 2002, giving the station a cleaner look. The architects were Ivan Taranov and Nadezhda Bykova.[1]

Traffic

The station is highly loaded due to nearby Moscow Central Bus Terminal.

gollark: See, this is not helping your case.
gollark: I think you are unreasonable and your alleged "measures" another example of ominous things.
gollark: Oh no, how DARE they talk about a bug shown by a public published binary.
gollark: I didn't make any analogies like that, and this doesn't seem to have been a security issue. Additionally, based on your displayed attitudes I doubt there would have been a bug report without them forcing it.
gollark: Basically all of them encourage different ones.
