KONE has been selected by NCC Sweden, general contractor for the new Hagastaden station of Sweden’s Stockholm Metro, to provide a range of PeopleFlow^® solutions, including 17 vertical-transportation (VT) units. The order includes four MonoSpace^® 700 DX elevators, two MiniSpace^TM DX inclined elevators and 11 TransitMaster^TM escalators. Expected to reach completion by 2028, the Hagastaden station will serve a new, urban area with 6,000 new residences and 50,000 employers in Stockholm and Solna, just north of the city center. “Hagastaden, today the hub of the Stockholm region’s life science cluster, will be developed to form a new urban district with housing, retail, culture and parks,” KONE observed.
