Reconstruction is occurring in the Norra Stationsområdet area in the City of Stockholm, creating the city district Hagastaden (Haga City). In Haga City, an elongated hourglass-shaped park will be created called The Northern Station Park (sv. Norra Stationsparken). The park will run through the northern inner city from Torsplan and Hagaplan in the west to Norrtull in the east, and it is one of Stockholm's largest park initiatives. The first part of the new Norra Stationsparken in Hagastaden was to be inaugurated in September 2019 and the rest of the park is expected to be completed in 2024 (Ref. 1, 2, 8, 9).

“The Royal National City Park, the world’s first national city park, was created in 1995 by the decision of the Swedish Parliament. The Park was established to safeguard and enhance the unique qualities of this area, containing outstanding natural qualities and heritage sites, ecologically important for the metropolitan area, and situated near and easily accessible from the central parts of Stockholm.” (Ref. 1)
One can experience a truly unique historical landscape, intertwined with parks, beautiful buildings, forests, open fields and beaches. In 2020, the park celebrates its 25 the year. (Ref. 12)

The project is part of the Environmental Billion project (of the City of Stockholm). The aim is to increase biodiversity, mainly linked to the landscape and also to increase the accessibility for visitors to the Kräppladalen (which is also known as Rågsved’s recreation/outdoors area) and make it more of an attractive area to visit. Also, the project aims to develop a programme and work documents that show how the purpose is to be achieved and also to perform restoration and accessibility measures in accordance with these documents. (Ref 1, 2)
Rågsved's nature reserve is the city's latest reserve and was inaugurated in 2018. It contains a mosaic of open meadows, wetlands, moist deciduous forests, deciduous environments and coniferous forests. (Ref. 7)
