Getting around in Stockholm and Sweden
Nearly everyone commutes in Stockholm by public transportation, and an average commute to KTH is about 45 minutes.
Local transportation
The public transportation system in Stockholm is called SL, and it is punctual and safe.
You cannot purchase tickets with cash on buses, trains, or in subway offices. All tickets need to be purchased through the SL app on your phone, or directly with your credit card. A monthly pass costs 970 SEK for an adult. In order to buy a student's ticket, you need to be a PhD registered at KTH.
