Along with most of the line, Valler has been closed for upgrades since July 1 2006 and its service is temporarily provided by bus [cite web |url=http://www.sporveien.no/templates/page____1150.aspx |title=Bus replacing the Kolsås line |author=Oslo Sporveier |language=Norwegian |date=2006] . Valler will among other things, receive longer platforms which can accommodate trains with up to six cars like most of the subway system.
