Kaitaa metro station
Kaitaa (Finnish) or Kaitans (Swedish) is an under-construction underground station[1] to be built on the western metro extension (Länsimetro) of the Helsinki Metro in Finland. The main entrance of the station is located at the eastern end of the block structure designed for crossing Kaitaantie and Iivisniemenkatu. The West Bank entrance is near Hannuskalli, where the preliminary land use plans have outlined further construction. In the March 2018 issue of Metro Matinkylä, Kivenlahti was intended to be handed over to the operating HKL during the year 2023.
