It has an interchange from the railway station to the metro station Moskovskaya.[3] For a free interchange, passengers can use the boarding pass for 90 minutes.

Priokskaya line – it has 12 stations and 5 interchange stations at the Nizhny Novgorod railway station, the Nizhny Novgorod-Sortirovochny, Petryaevka, Okskaya and Prospekt Gagarina stations.[4] It partially intersects with the suburb and connects the Kanavinsky, Leninsky, Avtozavodsky, Nizhegorodsky and Prioksky City Districts.[5] It has different tariff zones due to some stations being located outside the city.

Sormovskaya-2 line is the test section from the Pochinki station to the Varya station.[6] It consists of three stations and connects the 7th microdistrict with the center of Sormovo and partially with the Burevestnik metro station. The distance between these stations can be reached by tram with a free transfer on a transport card.
