The Dnipro Metro (Ukrainian: Дніпровський метрополітен) is a single-line rapid transit system that serves the city of Dnipro, the fourth largest city in Ukraine by population.^[6] The metro was the third system constructed in Ukraine, after the Kyiv and Kharkiv metro systems, respectively, when it opened on December 29, 1995. The metro was the fourteenth built in the former Soviet Union region, and the first to open after the collapse of the Soviet Union in 1991.

The Dnipro Metro consists of one 7.8-kilometer (4.8 mi) line and just 6 stations, making it one of the smallest metro systems in the world.^[1] The line starts at Vokzalna station, near the city's central railway station in the east and ends at Pokrovska station in the western part of the city. The system is open from 05:30 to 23:00.^[5] Ridership on the metro has steadily declined since its opening in 1995.^[2] In 2013, the metro carried 7.51 million passengers^[7] compared to 18.2 million in 1995.^[2] Initially, the metro trains carried five train cars each, but as the passenger ridership declined, the number of cars was reduced to three.^[8]^[1] The price for a single ride is currently ₴8; either plastic tokens or transit cards are used at the entrance gates.

Current expansion plans are projected to increase the number of stations to nine by 2024, which would extend the line 4 km (2.5 mi) to a total of 11.8 km (7.3 miles).^[1]
