History

The station, which only has exits at one end of the platform, had three escalators until reconstruction in the 1990s, when a fourth was introduced.[1]
In 2011, it was announced that I. P. Pavlova was one of five metro stations selected for redevelopment, whereby a lift will be installed to enable disabled access to the station.[6] The construction has a projected completion date of 2014.[6]
