The Red line, is one of the three Stockholm metro lines. It has a total of 36 stations, of which four are cut and cover, 16 are tunneled, and 15 are on the surface. The line is a total of 41.238 kilometres (25.624 mi) long. It consists of four branches with terminals in Fruängen and Norsborg in the southwest and Mörby center and Ropsten in the northeast.

The "Red line" designation began in the late-1970s, and officially only since the 1990s, and comes from the fact that the route has been marked in red on Storstockholms Lokaltrafik's maps at least since the 1970s. Previously, the Red line had been colored orange on the system map, but as new maps were printed with changes, the color became increasingly redder in the 1980s.

The line was opened on 5 April 1964, between T-Centralen and Fruängen and Örnsberg. Several more sections were opened between 1965 and 1967, while the last extension to Mörby centrum was completed in 1978. Within Stockholm's inner city, the red line was built independently of the street network, and at a greater depth than the Green line, which was constructed mainly under roadways.
