The Korsvoll Line (Bokmål: Korsvollinjen) is a former line of the Oslo Tramway in Norway. The line branched off from the Sagene Line at Bentsebrugata and ran along Bergensgata to Lisa Kristoffersens plass in Korsvoll, Oslo. The line opened on 1 May 1924 and was operated by Oslo Sporveier. From 1927 it became part of Line 10, which it remained part of until its closing on 17 January 1949. The reason for closing the line was that it was amongst the least trafficked lines of the tramway and Oslo Sporveier wanted to convert it to a trolleybus line.
