Koivusaari metro station (Finnish: Koivusaaren metroasema, Swedish: Björkholmens metrostation) is a station located underwater on the Länsimetro extension of the Helsinki Metro.[3][1][4]
Although the metro station is named after Koivusaari, the westernmost island in Helsinki, it is actually located on the extreme western edge of the Lauttasaari island. It is located 2.3 kilometres east from Keilaniemi metro station and 1.6 kilometres west from Lauttasaari metro station.
The eastern entrance to Koivusaari metro station is located on Sotkatie in Lauttasaari. The western entrance, on the island of Koivusaari itself, had not been taken into use when the Länsimetro was completed, it is waiting until land use in the area has developed enough.
