The Yellow Line (Swedish: Gula linjen) is a planned line on the Stockholm metro that will connect Fridhemsplan in the west of central Stockholm to Älvsjö in the southern part of the city. The line is planned to open for service in 2034, and should serve approximately 75,000 passengers per day by 2050.[1]
The line will feature interchanges with all three of the Metro's existing lines, as well as to the Stockholm commuter rail and Tvärbanan light rail, however will be the Metro's first line without a station at T-Centralen.[2]
Preparatory works for the line started in 2024,[3] with construction works scheduled to begin in 2025. The Yellow Line is estimated to cost nearly 14 billion Swedish kronor, with the majority of the funding coming from the state. As a condition of this funding, the City of Stockholm is required to build 48,500 new homes.[4]
