most important hubs in the Belgrade railway system. It became an intercity station when in 2018 it began serving the trains to Vršac. The total floor area of the railway platform is and it is located below the ground. The slanted tunnel with escalators, which connects the platforms and the vestibule above, is long. The descent by escalators takes a minute and a half. The interior was mostly done in granite, with decorative details. The station is embellished with several reliefs, including one called "Belgrade since the time of despot Stefan", and Cyrillic letters. In 2016 city organized design competition and the project for revitalization of both the underground station and the plateau above it was chosen in 2017. All obstacles were to be removed from the plateau and to integrate it in the surrounding Cyril and Methodius Park. Though accepted and green-lighted, the project remained on paper only. As of 2018, the facility somewhat deteriorated. The escalators are in bad shape and out of use for years, the numerous shops, intended for the commercial venues, are mostly empty while the slabs on the plateau above it also deteriorated. It is expected that the station will be refurbished after the construction of the subway starts. Condition of the venue worsened and in April 2019 deputy mayor Goran Vesić said that the Vukov Spomenik station is in the "worst shape of all" urban train stations. In April 2022, state railway company announced that some minor repairs were conducted, and that €3 million were allocated for the incoming, full reconstruction.
