To the North-west of the city centre it runs under Bockenheimer Landstraße before splitting into two branches to Hausen and Praunheim.

The station, designed by A.C. Walter, is characterised by floral elements due to the proximity to the Palmengarten botanical gardens.

Via the western exit, a tram stop, served by line 16, can be reached, located in front of the former Bockenheimer Depot.

In addition to ecclesiastical motifs the decoration in the station includes old pictures of the formerly independent city of Bockenheim.

After crossing under the Main–Weser Railway the tunnel ends with a ramp up to Industriehof station, in the central reservation of Friedrich-Wilhelm-von-Steuben-Straße.

The tram line had already been upgraded to light rail standards in the 1970s in connection with the construction of the new Central Workshop.

From Industriehof the line passes through the station at Fischstein and crosses the river Nidda before reaching Hausener Weg.

This station lies at the junction of the street of the same name with Ludwig-Landmann-Straße and serves the adjacent residential areas of Hausen and Rödelheim.

[8] The branch to Hausen (now served by the U6, formerly the U7[7]) runs at ground level on the central reservation of Am Hohen Weg.

The outer walls of the underground station are decorated with large black and white photographs of the river Main and its bridges from the 19th to the 21st century.

The station was only accessible from Danziger Platz for eight years until the platforms were extended and an additional entrance built on Hanauer Landstraße, located south of the Ostbahnhof.

In Habsburgerallee station the columns are green and on the wall there is a mosaic with donkeys by the artist Manfred Stumpf.

The columns of this station are yellow and the wall motifs show black-and-white images of people communicating.

The last underground station of the Ostend line is Eissporthalle, which lies below the Bornheimer Hang housing estate.

Subsequently, the district of Fechenheim is to be reached on the current tram line in central position of the Hanauer highway.

A short extension of the urban railway line in the district of Bergen-Enkheim along the street lamp to the mountain pool Bergen is currently not pursued.

The reasons are the immediately adjacent nature reserve and the unclear development of the building area lamp.

Also since 2005, a reactivation of the former tram line to Bergen in the general traffic plan is provided, which is to be supplemented by a short tunnel in the old town of Berger.

The Frankfurt Department of Transportation commissioned a correspondingly concrete study of the project, which concerned the extension of subway line 6, which currently ends at Heerstraße in Praunheim.

In March 2014, however, the city council of Frankfurt decided against the further expansion of the U6 in the Taunus, as the estimated costs of around 30 million euros were considered not "portable".

The planning of the Regional Tangent West provides for a total of three new stops for the industrial estate in the southeast of Eschborn.
