Name

The station's name from the street, Ugreshskaya Ulitsa, in which it is situated. The name comes from the nearby Nikolo-Ugreshsky Monastery and is shared with a station on the Moscow Railway's Little Ring line.

Originally, the name of the station was planned to be Volgogradskaya; however, the city renamed it in August 2016, prior to opening.[1]

Transfer

From January 2017, passengers may make out-of-station transfers to Volgogradsky Prospekt station on the Metro's Tagansko-Krasnopresnenskaya Line.[2]
