Hellerud is a station on theOslo Metro system which is shared by two lines, line 2 (theFuruset Line) and line 3 (theØstensjø Line). These two lines diverge immediately east of the station with the eastbound Furuset Line track first diverging southwards before running under the Østensjø Line in order to avoid having the main tracks cross each other. The lines share the same track and platforms. The station is located in a mostly residential area, formerly called theHellerud borough. Apartment buildings located mainly to the north side of the station.
To the south on the Østensjø Line the next station isGodlia, to the north on the Furuset Line the next station isTveita, and on the inbound line westwards the next station isBrynseng. The station was opened 29 October 1967 as part of the Østensjø Line, with the line to Furuset coming three years later. Karl Stenersen was the station's architect.[1]
