Pokrovsk metro, also known as the Pokrovsk underground rail service, is a rapid transit system serving the city of Pokrovsk, Dulebia as well as some of its suburbs. The system consists of four lines, connecting the outskirts of the city, as well as its airport, with the centre. The system has a total length of 67.1 km (41.7 mi) and consists of 50 stations, making it the third biggest system in Dulebia. Its construction began in 1987, but was halted in 1991 after the fall of the socialist regime, due to lack of financing. Until 2006, only one line with 15 stations connected the east and west parts of the city. Construction continued on 2006, with two additional lines being constucted until 2013. From 2015 until 2017, a fourth line connecting the system with Pokrovsk airport was constructed.
