Stockholm City Station is a railway station which is under construction in downtown Stockholm, Sweden. Scheduled to open in 2017, the station is located on the Stockholm City Line and will be located directly below T-Centralen, the central station of the Stockholm Metro, and with interchange with Stockholm Central Station. The station will serve all Stockholm Commuter Rail trains.[1]
Facilities
The station will be located directly below T-Centralen, and will allow quicker transfer between metro and commuter rail than the current solution, with the commuter trains stopping at the central station. City will have two entrances, which will be common with the metro station. One exits at Vasaplan in with access to the Arlanda Express,[1] which will be common for the commuter rail and metro,[2] and the other at Centralplan beside Scandic Continental. The station will be located between 35 and 40 metres (115 and 131 ft) below ground level. At ground level, the station will have a glass facade to allow as much sunlight as possible to penetrate down to the track level.[1] An ascent from the station will be built to the metro's Green Line platforms towards Hagsätra, Skarpnäck and Farsta, and the Red Line's platforms towards Mörby and Ropsten.[2]
History
Construction started in 2009 and is done by building to access tunnels from the depot at the central station, Vattungaraget and Torsgatan. The tunneling and bedrock work is scheduled for completion in 2013, after which the station itself with facilities will be built.[1]
