Stockholm’s most attractive meeting places, with

Stockholm is growing
Many major projects
Stockholm and the Mälardalen region is growing
rapidly. The latest forecasts indicates a population
increase of 40 000 per year. By 2030 more than
one million people will be living in just the city of
Stockholm itself. This amazing expansion also puts
great pressure on accessibility, public services and
new housing. That is why there are currently some
30 large-scale developments and infrastructure
projects underway or being planned in Stockholm
– Slussen is one of the most important.

problems of its time and cars were the focus
of the area’s planning in the 1930s. Hundreds

everyone will be interested in stopping to enjoy

all year round
New indoor and outdoor
environments
New Slussen is designed to be an attractive
place to enjoy at any time of the year, whatever
the weather. When it is warm and pleasant,
Stockholmers and tourists will be able to
relax in the new Katarina Park, at the outdoor
restaurants or on new seating along the
embankments. But to bring life to Slussen all year
round, the design also features new buildings and
sheltered, indoor spaces.

the future
Slussen is, and will continue to be, an important
hub for travellers. Buses, the underground,
Saltsjöbanan, cars, boats, cyclists and pedestrians
all congregate at Slussen. Hundreds of thousands
of people pass through the area on a daily basis.
The number of those using public transport,
pedestrians and cyclists is increasing each year
and new Slussen is designed to meet their future
needs.
