Mortensrud is an overground subway station in the Søndre Nordstrand borough on Østensjøbanen (Line 3) on the Oslo T-bane. Since Mortensrud's opening on January 4, 1998 it has been the end station of the line; formerly the end station was Skullerud.

Mortensrud has two platforms, but being an end station, only one of them is in use. The line emerges from a tunnel upon entering the station.

Mortensrud is located next to a shopping centre. Across the platform is a bus station with bus services to neighborhoods further south such as Holmlia and Bjørndal.
