Public transportation in Stockholm
Publiceringsdatum: 1 November 2024
By metro, tram, bus, ferry, or commuter train. Stockholm's local transportation network takes you almost anywhere.
Stockholm Public Transport, SL, is responsible for buses, underground trains, commuter trains, trams, and certain ferry lines in Greater Stockholm.
A single ticket is valid for 75 minutes and costs 42 SEK (26 SEK for senior citizens and children/teenagers/students up to the age of 20). It can be purchased at SL's customer service shops, through their app, or directly at the turnstiles and on buses using a credit card. It's also possible to buy 24-hour, 72-hour, 7-day, and 30-day tickets. A parent with a stroller gets to ride for free on any of Stockholm's buses.
It's not possible to pay cash for tickets on buses in Stockholm. Failure to show a valid ticket during a control will incur a 1500 SEK penalty fee.

Stockholmers are always heedful of their beautiful surroundings, which has led to many inner-city buses running on eco-friendly fuels such as biodiesel. Stockholm's public transport system also has an accessibility guarantee to ensure travelers with disabilities reach their destinations.
