Location

Vestgrensa (originally Ullevål Haveby) was a light rail station on the Sognsvann Line of the Oslo Metro in Norway. It opened on 10 October 1934, and was located between Blindern and Ullevål stadion stations. In the early 1990s, when the Sognsvann Line was upgraded from light rail to full metro standard, the station was reconstructed. It was closed on 22 August 1999, when it was replaced by the new station Forskningsparken.
