Rizhskaya (Russian: Рижская) is a station on the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line of the Moscow Metro, between the stations Sokolniki and Maryina Roshcha.[1] A transfer to the Kaluzhsko–Rizhskaya line, via its Rizhskaya station, is opened on the opening day, 1 March 2023.[2][1] The two metro stations are being developed, along with the nearby Moscow Rizhsky railway station, as part of a transport interchange hub that would also serve three of the Moscow Central Diameters (D2, D3, and D4) as well as the Moscow–Saint Petersburg high-speed railway.[2]

The station is one of 14 Moscow Metro stations that were opened on 1 March 2023.[3][a] Rizhskaya's technical launch was held on 30 November 2022, along with those of Sokolniki and Maryina Roshcha, as part of the deployment of the new northeast section of the Bolshaya Koltsevaya line.[4]
