The station in the Brateyevo District, Southern Administrative Okrug, Moscow opened in December, 2011. It is on the Lyublinsko-Dmitrovskaya Line, between Maryino and Shipilovskaya stations. The Moscow Metro is a rapid transit system serving Moscow and the neighboring town of Krasnogorsk. Opened in 1935 with one 11-kilometre (6.8 mi) line and 13 stations, it was the first underground railway system in the Soviet Union. As of 2011, the Moscow Metro has 185 stations, and its route length is 305.7 kilometers. The system is mostly underground, with the deepest section 84 meters below ground at the Park Pobedy station. In fact, the Moscow Metro is the world’s second-most-heavily-used rapid transit system, after Tokyo’s twin subway.
