Transport
The transport provided is:
Rail
- Metro Blue line (T-banan), running from Kungsträdgården in city centre to Hjulsta station in the north. It has two stations, Hjulsta and Tensta, both inaugurated with the opening in 1975.
- Commuter rail has one station, Spånga, serving central parts of Bromsten.
Car
When finished, the Förbifart Stockholm will provide a motorway to be built to lighten traffic at E4/E20. In 2005, however, E18 Hjulstavägen runs on the north of Hjulsta/Tensta, creating a border between the green area and the city zone.
