Gjettum is a station on Kolsås Line (line 6) of the Oslo T-bane system. It is located between Hauger and Valler at the foot of Kolsåstoppen, 15.5 km from Stortinget.

The station was opened 1 January 1930 as part of the tramway Lilleaker Line. [cite web |url=http://www.sporveien.no/templates/Page____1033.aspx |author=Oslo Sporveier |title=Subway stations in the west]

Along with most of the line, Gjettum has been closed for upgrades since 1 July 2006 and its service is temporarily provided by bus route 42 [cite web |url=http://www.sporveien.no/templates/page____1150.aspx |title=Bus replacing the Kolsås line |author=Oslo Sporveier |language=Norwegian |date=2006] . Gjettum will among other things, receive longer platforms which can accommodate trains with up to six cars like most of the subway system.
