Tjernsrud is a station on the Kolsås Line (line 6) on the Oslo T-bane system. Located in Bærum, Norway, it is between Ringstabekk and Jar, 9.9 km from Stortinget. It serves the neighborhoods of northern Stabekk and southeastern Jar.

The station was opened July 1 1924 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, Tjernsrud has been closed for upgrades since July 1 2006 and its service is temporarily provided by tram line 13, as an extension of the service from Jar to Bekkestua [cite web |url=http://www.sporveien.no/templates/page____1150.aspx |title=Bus replacing the Kolsås line |author=Oslo Sporveier |language=Norwegian |date=2006] . Tjernsrud will probably not be reopened as a T-bane station.
