Tsentralna (Ukrainian: Центральна) is a station currently under construction on the Dnipropetrovsk Metro's Tsentralno–Zavodska Line. It is projected to be opened by 2015.[1]

Originally scheduled to be opened in 1993 as Ploshcha Lenina (Ukrainian: Площа Леніна), the station's construction was delayed significantly after the fall of the Soviet Union.[2] Budget issues and economic instability in Ukraine further delayed the station's opening.

The station is located deep underground in the center of Dnipropetrovsk, and will be located in between the Teatralna and Muzeina stations, both of which are also under construction. It is not known what final form the station will take on; whether it will be a deep column or a single-vault station.[2]

It is projected that when a second metro line will be added to the system, Tsentralna will serve as a transfer station to the future second line's "Yevropeiska Ploshcha" station.[1]
