Location

Rönninge is a station on Stockholm's commuter rail network, located in Rönninge in Salem Municipality, 28.4 km from Stockholm City Station. The station has a single island platform with a ticket hall on the platform, accessible via a pedestrian tunnel. In 2015, the station had an average of 2,600 boardings per winter weekday.[1]

History

The station was originally opened in 1888.[2][3] It underwent renovations in 1915-16 and 1920, when the first pedestrian tunnel was added. In 1970, after Storstockholms Lokaltrafik (SL) took over operations, further adaptations were made for commuter rail service: the platform was elevated, a new pedestrian tunnel was built, and the original station building was demolished.[4] In the late 1980s, additional modernisation efforts included the installation of elevators.
