Avløs is a station on Kolsåsbanen (line 6) on the Oslo T-bane system. It is between Valler and Haslum, 13.6 km from Stortinget. The station was opened July 1, 1924 as part of the tramway Lilleakerbanen[1]. Along with most of the line, Avløs has been closed for upgrades since July 1, 2006 and its service is temporarily provided by bus[2]. Avløs will among other things, receive longer platforms which can accommodate trains with up to six cars like most of the subway system.
