Maidan Pratsi (Kryvyi Rih Metrotram)
Maidan Pratsi ( uk, Майдан Працi; russian: Площадь Труда, translit=Ploschad` Truda) is a station on the Kryvyi Rih Metrotram. Opened on 29 December 1986, it was the original northern terminus of the system and remains the terminus of the route №1. The station was built as a multi-platform complex, located on a tram reversal ring, with only one of the three platforms being housed in a formal structure, whilst the rest are typical tram stops. This is due to the station being located next to the system's depot, which results in the unusual appearance of the station. Trams coming into the station first drop off the passengers on a standard platform, before picking up new passengers on the covered structure and continuing southbound. For the trams going into the depot, there is a third platform located slightly north of the station. Ironically it is the only way that passengers coming from route №2 can get off at this station. The structure of the second pla ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Kryvyi Rih Metrotram
The Kryvyi Rih Metrotram or the Kryvyi Rih Metro ''( uk, Криворізьке метро)'' is a partially underground rapid transit Rapid transit, metro system that serves the city of Kryvyi Rih, the seventh-largest city in Ukraine. Despite its designation as a "metro tram" and its use of tram cars as rolling stock, the Kryvyi Rih Metro is fully grade separation, grade-separated both from roads and from the city's conventional tram lines, with enclosed stations and tracks. History The design of the Metrotram seen in Kryvyi Rih has its roots in the socialist urban planning guidelines that were formulated in the 1960s, based on models of the emergence of new urban centers and the transport arrangements that would suit them, in particular, how a small settlement would grow into a full-sized city, and at which point a rapid transit system would need to be built. Kryvyi Rih and Volgograd were both chosen to test whether the construction of a full-scale metro system could be avoided ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Ukrainization
Ukrainization (also spelled Ukrainisation), sometimes referred to as Ukrainianization (or Ukrainianisation) is a policy or practice of increasing the usage and facilitating the development of the Ukrainian language and promoting other elements of Ukrainian culture in various spheres of public life such as education, publishing, government, and religion. The term is also used to describe a process by which non-Ukrainians or Russian-speaking Ukrainians come to accept Ukrainian culture and language as their own. A major early case of Ukrainization relates to the Soviet indigenization policy of the 1920s (''korenizatsiya'', literally "putting down roots"), which aimed at strengthening Soviet power in the territory of Soviet Ukraine and in southern regions of the Russian SFSR. In various forms, Ukrainization policies also played out in several different periods of the 20th-century history of Ukraine, although with somewhat different goals and in different historical contexts.
