New series on what’s happening under your feet

What’s happening under our feet? This is something many Stockholmers are asking themselves now that the metro is being expanded and the work can be both heard and felt in many places. In Under Your Feet (Under dina fötter in Swedish), now available on the Nya tunnelbanan Youtube and social media channels, you can follow the work on the expansion close up. 

Watch the first episode:

“Building the new metro is a major investment that will affect many people living in Stockholm. This is a way for us to offer Stockholmers a sneak peek at how the new metro lines and stations are actually being built. We hope that this series will arouse interest and that many people will want to join us on the journey towards a new metro,” says Marianne Dunér, head of communication at the department responsible for the metro expansion.

In the first few episodes, viewers will be able to experience a drilling rig from the inside, hear about the challenges of building a depot, see how tunnels are measured to make sure they end up in the right place, and much more. You will also get to see how completely new metro lines are planned.

“There are an incredible number of aspects to the construction of the new metro, and it’s great to be able to show the breadth and complexity of the work in this way,” says Oskar Hannler, project manager for Under Your Feet.  

You can now watch the first three episodes on the Nya tunnelbanan Youtube channel. Don’t forget to subscribe to the channel to avoid missing new episodes when they are released.
