Stone cold blasting at Gullmarsplan
At Gullmarsplan, part of the rock had to be frozen in order to finish building the track tunnel. Now that the rock has reached the right temperature, the blasts are in full swing.

On Tuesday 26 September, Region Stockholm’s traffic committee decided that the metro line to Älvsjö will have unattendes train operation – for the first time in Stockholm.
The last tunnels for the Blue Line to Barkarby are currently being blasted. Parallel to this, bare caverns are being converted into the new metro. One word covers the first step: concrete.
Although it will be many years before the Älvsjö–Fridhemsplan metro line is up and running, many important steps need to be completed long before then. One of these is where the trains operating the new line will be cleaned, serviced and repaired.
The end of the year is approaching and everything is about to be summed up. If you look at how many of our procurements that are ready, ongoing and still left to do, it looks like this.
