Challenges are still significant on the blue line of the Stockholm subway, since wheel damage has been discovered. On Wednesday morning, trains run every 20th minute on lines 10 and 11 between Hjulsta and T-centralen, as well as Akalla and Fridhemsplan.

Buses will reinforce between Kungsträdgården, Akalla, and Hjulsta, and trains will be borrowed from other lines. However, there are significant limitations in traffic.

In Tuesday, wheel damage was discovered, which is believed to be caused by a faulty gear, and all 20 full-length trains on the blue line were taken out of service. The gear fault has been repaired, but work on a sustainable solution continues.

When traffic can return to normal, it is unclear, but it will take more than a week, according to Strömberg.
