The main forms of public transport used in Dnipro are trams, buses and electric [[Trolleybus|trolley buses]]. In addition to this there are a large number of taxi firms operating in the city, and many residents have private cars.

The city's municipal roads also suffer from the same funding problems as the trams, with many of them in a very poor technical state.{{citation needed|date=July 2013}} It is not uncommon to find very large potholes and crumbling surfaces on many of Dnipro's smaller roads. Major roads and highways are of better quality. In the early [[2010s]] the situation was improving, with a number of new used trams bought from the German cities of [[Dresden]] and [[Magdeburg]],<ref>{{cite web |author= |date=19 January 2011 |title=К нам привезли новые старые трамваи – Днепропетровск |trans-title=New old trams were brought to us – Dnepropetrovsk |url=http://gorod.dp.ua/news/60242 |access-date=12 March 2013 |publisher=Gorod.dp.ua |language=ru}}</ref> and a number of roads, including [[Otto Schmidt|Schmidt]] Street (now [[Stepan Bandera]] Street<ref name="DniproSBS7368431"/>) and Moskovsky Street (now [[Vladimir II Monomakh|Volodymyr Monomakh]] Street<ref name="APPEAL№220666DCC">{{cite web |date=6 January 2022 |title=Звернення №220666 Водопостачання: Відсутність водопостачання за межами будинку вулиця Володимира Мономаха (Московська) 12а, Дніпро |trans-title=APPEAL №220666 Water supply: No water supply outside the house Volodymyr Monomakh Street (Moskovsky) 12a, Dnipro |url=https://hotline.dniprorada.gov.ua/contactcenter/request/220666 |access-date=17 November 2022 |website=Dnipro City Council |language=Ukrainian}}</ref>) were being reconstructed with modern road-building techniques.<ref>{{cite web |date=15 August 2011 |title=Ремонт дорог в Днепропетровске на 16 августа 2011 года |trans-title=Road repairs in Dnepropetrovsk on August 16, 2011 |url=http://34.ua/news/economic/transport/roads/85-remont-dorog-v-dnepropetrovske-na-16-avgusta-2011-goda.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130505093610/http://34.ua/news/economic/transport/roads/85-remont-dorog-v-dnepropetrovske-na-16-avgusta-2011-goda.html |archive-date=5 May 2013 |access-date=12 March 2013 |publisher=34.ua |language=ru}}</ref>

Dnipro also has a [[Dnipro Metro|metro system]], opened in 1995, which consists of one line and 6 stations.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://gorod.dp.ua/metro/eng/ |title=Metro |access-date=25 March 2008}}</ref> The 1980 official plans for four different lines were never made reality.<ref name="журналМетростройDma">{{Cite web |title=Проектируется метро в Днепропетровске (журнал "Метрострой" №5 за 1980 г.) |trans-title=The metro is being designed in Dnepropetrovsk (Metrostroy magazine No.5 1980) |url=https://metro.dp.ua/articles/projected-subway-in-dnipropetrovsk.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190321205759/https://metro.dp.ua/articles/projected-subway-in-dnipropetrovsk.html |archive-date=21 March 2019 |access-date= |website=metro.dp.ua}}</ref> In 2011 the metro was transferred to municipal ownership in the hope that this will help it secure a loan from the [[European Bank for Reconstruction and Development]].<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.kyivpost.com/news/nation/detail/115437/ |title=Dnipropetrovsk Metropoliten in municipal ownership now |publisher=Kyivpost.com |date=21 October 2011 |access-date=12 March 2013}}</ref> In 2011, plans envisioned an expansion of three station, {{stnlnk|Teatralna|Dnipro Metro|Teatralna}}, {{stl|Dnipro Metro|Tsentralna}} and {{stl|Dnipro Metro|Muzeina}}, to be completed by 2015.<ref>{{cite web |date=25 October 2011 |title=Метро в Днепропетровске достроят в 2015 году – Днепропетровск |trans-title=The metro in Dnepropetrovsk will be completed in 2015 – Dnepropetrovsk |url=http://mignews.com.ua/ru/articles/90597.html |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111223155941/https://mignews.com.ua/ru/articles/90597.html |archive-date=23 December 2011 |access-date=12 March 2013 |publisher=MIGnews.com.ua |language=ru}}</ref> The opening of these three stations have been repeatedly delayed,<ref name="673225bDniproMetro"/> and after the February [[Russian invasion of Ukraine|2022 full-scale Russian invasion of Ukraine]] all work on the expansion stopped.<ref>{{cite web |date=29 January 2024 |title=У Дніпрі турецька компанія покинула будівництво метро: які заходи вживатиме міська влада |trans-title=In Dnipro, a Turkish company abandoned the construction of the metro: what measures will the city authorities take? |url=https://suspilne.media/dnipro/672236-u-dnipri-turecka-kompania-pokinula-budivnictvo-metro-akih-zahodiv-vzivatime-miska-vlada/ |language=uk}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |date=13 February 2024 |title="Limak" кинув Дніпро: чому не продовжують будівництво метро? |trans-title="Limak" abandoned Dnipro: why is the construction of the metro not being continued? |url=https://dnipro.tv/news-dnipro/limak-kynuv-dnipro-chomu-ne-prodovzhuiut-budivnytstvo-metro/ |website=Dnipro News |language=uk}}</ref> The extension will increase the number of stations to nine, which would extend the line 4&nbsp;km to a total of 11.8&nbsp;km (7.3-mile).<ref name="673225bDniproMetro">{{Cite web |date=21 April 2021 |title=Будівництво трьох нових станцій метро у Дніпрі продовжили до 2024 року |trans-title=Construction of three new metro stations in the Dnieper continued until 2024 |url=https://epravda.com.ua/news/2021/04/21/673225/ |access-date= |website=[[Ukrayinska Pravda]] |language=uk}}</ref>

===Suburban transportation===
[[File:Central bridge Dnipro.jpg|thumb|Bridges linking the city's right and left banks are heavily used]]

Dnipro has some highways crossing through the city. The most popular routes are from [[Kyiv]], [[Donetsk]], [[Kharkiv]] and [[Zaporizhzhia]]. Transit through the city is also available. {{As of|2011}} the city is also seeing construction of a southern urban bypass, which will allow automobile traffic to proceed around the city centre. This is expected to both improve air quality and reduce transport issues from heavy freight lorries that pass through the city centre.{{citation needed|date=November 2011}}

The largest bus station in [[eastern Ukraine]] is located in Dnipro, from where bus routes are available to all over the country, including some international routes to [[Poland]], Germany, [[Moldova]] and [[Turkey]]. It is located near the city's central railway station. Since the start of the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]] Ukraine's border crossings with Russia and [[Belarus]] are closed to regular traffic.<ref name="gov.uktaU18112022">{{Cite web |title=Foreign travel advice Ukraine|url=https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/ukraine/returning-to-the-uk|access-date=18 November 2022|website=[[GOV.UK]] |language=English}}<br>{{Cite web |title=War in Ukraine: The village with Russia and Belarus on its doorstep|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-61220296|date=26 April 2022|access-date=18 November 2022|website=[[BBC News]] |language=English}}</ref>

In the summertime, there are some routes available by [[hydrofoil]]s on the [[Dnieper River]], while various tourist ships on their way down the river, (Kyiv–[[Kherson]]–[[Odesa]]) tend to make a stop in the city. Dnipro's river port is located close to the area surrounding the central railway station, on the banks of the river.

===Rail===
[[File:Головний залізничний вокзал Дніпра.jpg|right|thumb|Dnipro's main station is one of eastern Ukraine's largest]]
The city is a large railway junction, with many daily trains running to and from Eastern Europe and on domestic routes within Ukraine.

There are two railway terminals, [[Dnipro Railway station|Dnipro Holovnyi]] (main station) and Dnipro Lotsmanska (south station).

Two express passenger services run each day between [[Kyiv]] and Dnipro under the name 'Capital Express'. Other daytime services include suburban trains to towns and villages in the surrounding [[Dnipropetrovsk Oblast]]. Most long-distance trains tend to run at night to reduce the amount of daytime hours spent travelling by each passenger.

Domestic connections exist between Dnipro and [[Kyiv]], [[Lviv]], [[Odesa]], [[Ivano-Frankivsk]], [[Truskavets]], [[Kharkiv]] and many other smaller Ukrainian cities, while international destinations include, among others the Bulgarian seaside resort of [[Varna, Bulgaria|Varna]]. Following the [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine]] all railway connection between Ukraine and Belarus were axed.<ref name="7332827UkberuRail"/> Meaning that the pre-war international destinations to [[Minsk]] in Belarus, Moscow's [[Kursky Rail Terminal|Kursky Station]] and [[Saint Petersburg]]'s [[Vitebsky Rail Terminal|Vitebsky Station]] in Russia and [[Baku]]—the capital of [[Azerbaijan]]—are no longer in service.<ref name="7332827UkberuRail">{{Cite web|title=There is no longer a railway connection between Ukraine and Belarus – head of Ukrzaliznytsia|url=https://www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2022/03/19/7332827/|date=19 March 2022|access-date=18 November 2022|website=[[Ukrainska Pravda]] |language=English}}</ref>

===Aviation===
The city is served by [[Dnipro International Airport]] {{airport codes|DNK}} and is connected to European and Middle Eastern cities with daily flights. It is located {{cvt|15|km}} southeast from the city centre. [[2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine|A Russian attack]] on 10 April 2022 completely destroyed the airport and the infrastructure nearby.<ref name="345DniproIA3903">{{Cite web |title=Russian military again strikes Dnipro airport|url=https://www.ukrinform.net/rubric-ato/3453903-russian-military-again-strikes-dnipro-airport.html|access-date=2022-04-10 |website=[[Ukrinform]] |date=10 April 2022 |language=English}}</ref>
