Raiduzhnyi (Ukrainian: Райдужний; before 2024, Troieshchyna-2) is a station on the Livoberezhna Line of the Kyiv Light Rail system. It was opened on October 26, 2012.[1]

Raiduzhnyi is a terminus station located after the Romana Shukhevycha station. It is directly connected to the Kyiv Urban Electric Train's eponymous Troieschyna-2 railway stop,[2] with which it forms a combined transit complex.

The former station's name comes from the neighborhood of Troieshchyna, current name comes from the neighborhood of Raiduzhnyi Masyv.
