Oslo’s public transportation authority, Ruter, is advising travelers to avoid Nationaltheatret station and instead use Stortinget station. This recommendation stems from significant crowds gathering in the city center, particularly around Slottsplassen, to pay respects to His Majesty King Harald. The large number of people is causing substantial congestion at Nationaltheatret, impacting transit services. Ruter reports challenges across multiple lines – 30, 31, 37, and 81 – that serve the station. Several bus departures are also experiencing delays as a result of the increased traffic. Travelers are encouraged to plan accordingly and allow extra time for their commutes or choose alternative routes. Ruter will continue to monitor the situation and provide updates as needed.
