The Nevsko-Vasileostrovskaya Line (Template:Lang-ru), is a line of the Saint Petersburg Metro, opened in 1967. Since 1994, it has been officially designated as Line 3. It stands out among St. Petersburg metro lines for two reasons — its stations are almost exclusively of "Horizontal Lift" type and it has the longest inter-station tunnels in the entire system. Metro officials originally intended to add stations in-between the existing ones, but those plans were later abandoned.

The line cuts Saint Petersburg centre on an east-west axis and then turns southeast following the left bank of the Neva River. It is generally coloured green on Metro maps.

Rolling stock

The Nevskoe depot (№ 5) serves the line. Presently 36 six carriage trains are assigned to it, which are Em, Ema, and Emx built in 1960s and 1970s, 81-717/714 built in the 1970s and 1980s, and 81-540/541 and .7 running since 2002.

Recent developments and future plans

No extensions are planned, but a station Admiralteiskaya is planned between Gostinny Dvor and Vasileostrovskaya to be a transfer to the line 5. The station Proletarskaya was closed for reconstruction on August 25, 2005. Originally, it was intended to reopen on February 25, 2007, but the reconstruction was finished ahead of schedule, allowing the station to reopen on November 17, 2006
