Sportlaan is a former Metro Station in south Amsterdam on line 51. It serves the International School of Amsterdam. The Metro is served by two types of Metro Carriage the older S1/S2 Series, which is unique to the 51 line and most common carriage on the line, and the S3 Series which also serves the 50, 53 & 54 lines.
In November 2017, a departures board was installed at Sportlaan in the direction of Amsterdam Centraal Station.
Renovations
Line 51 will undergo renovations starting in 2018 with a planned finish in 2020 (in which it will receive a different line number). The street crossing with be replaced by a multi leveled crossing comparable to Station Ouderkerkerlaan. It will be temporarily closed, during which a bus will service the surround neighborhood.
The new crossing is part of the Amstelveenlijn project[1] Due to the disruption the local community will be served by replacement bus 55.
