context_page_description: Høvik Station is a railway station of the Drammen Line situated at Høvik in Bærum, Norway. Located 10.72 kilometers from Oslo Central Station, it is served by line L1 of the Oslo Commuter Rail. It is located in a residential area and has four regular hourly services operated by the Norwegian State Railways. The station features two accessible side platforms and an underpass. There are five tracks, three of which are used for turnaround, parking and splitting of trains.
  The station, designed by Georg Andreas Bull, opened on 1 May 1874, two years after the line. It received major upgrade from 1917 to 1922, when an all-new station building and island platform were built, while the railway was doubled, electrified and gauge converted to standard gauge. This gave a thirty-minuted headway to Oslo and Sandvika. Høvik was manned until 1995. It received a new upgrade in 2013 and 2014, when the buildings were demolished and new tracks installed.
