Hellerud is a station on the Oslo T-bane system which is shared by two lines, line 2 (Furusetbanen) and line 3 (Østensjøbanen). These two lines diverge immediately east of the station with the eastbound Furusetbanen track first diverging southwards before running under Østensjøbanen in order to avoid having the main tracks cross each other. The lines share the same track and platforms. The station is located in a mostly residential area, formerly called the Hellerud borough. Apartment buildings located mainly to the north side of the station.

To the south on Østensjøbanen the next station is Godlia, to the north on Furusetbanen the next station is Tveita, and on the inbound line westwards the next station is Brynseng. The station was opened October 29 1967 as part of Østensjøbanen, with the line to Furuset coming three years later. Karl Stenersen was the station's architect.
