Alvik metro station


Alvik metro station is a station on the Green line of the Stockholm metro, and the Tvärbanan and Nockeby tramways, located in Traneberg, Västerort. The station was inaugurated on 26 October 1952 as a part of the stretch between Hötorget and Vällingby. The Nockeby tramway, which had continued into Stockholm before the construction of the Metro, was rebuilt with two terminating tracks located for cross-platform interchange between the Green line platforms.
In 2000 the Tvärbanan tramway was connected to Alvik. An extension to Solna was opened in autumn 2013 via a tunnel towards Ulvsunda. Two platforms for Tvärbanan are located below and slightly to the west of the Metro and Nockeby tramway platforms.
At the west end of the station, the Metro and the Nockeby tramway are connected by shared tracks to the depot Brommadepån. A curved tunnel connects the depot to the lower Tvärbanan tracks.
