Subway: Stop at Jernbanetorget

The subway service is halted at Jernbanetorget due to a medical emergency involving a passenger on board.

The T-bane (subway) service in Oslo, Norway, is currently halted at Jernbanetorget heading eastward following an incident where a passenger became ill. Ruter's spokesperson, Øystein Dahl Johansen, confirmed that a train is stopped at the station because of a medical emergency, and an ambulance is on its way to attend to the situation.

As a result of this emergency, T-bane traffic is experiencing disruptions, particularly in the eastern direction from Jernbanetorget. Dahl Johansen indicated that passengers should expect some delays until the ambulance arrives, which is currently reported to be a few minutes away. Once the medical personnel have addressed the situation, normal service will resume, although some residual delays may continue for a period.

This incident highlights the importance of swift emergency response in public transportation systems and underscores the potential vulnerabilities within urban transit networks, where unforeseen medical emergencies can disrupt services. Ruter has advised travelers to remain patient as they work to resolve the situation efficiently.
