Rail

SYSTRA Denmark has been an active part of the planning and design of new railway lines and stations, as well as the upgrading and maintenance of the existing infrastructure on the Danish rail network, for decades. The foundation of our consultancy is a genuine ambition to help infrastructure owners and operators meet the changing demands of passengers, operators, and authorities. Going forward, our shared railway infrastructure must continue to fulfil its role and contribute to a dynamic and well-functioning society.

Multidisciplinary railway consultant

SYSTRA is a multidisciplinary railway consultant and specialist. Our expertise in the railway sector, built up over many decades, enables us to continuously improve, adapt, and rethink railway infrastructure, helping the rail sector meet both existing and emerging challenges.

SYSTRA works on a wide range of projects within the railway sector, including the design and construction of new lines as well as the expansion and improvement of existing ones. By working across a variety of roles, from consultancy and engineering to supervision and commissioning, SYSTRA is able to add value at every stage of a railway project.

Our dedicated railway teams deliver innovative, safe, and collaborative solutions to our clients. We provide consultancy, design, and project management throughout the entire project lifecycle. As a centre of expertise in railway design, we help our clients every day to ensure a safe and sustainable railway that meets real-world requirements.

Future-ready railway infrastructure

The railway network must be adapted to climate change and contribute to reducing CO2 emissions from operations and construction.

Heavy rainfall, cloudbursts, and storms put pressure on railway facilities just as they do on other types of infrastructure. We help infrastructure owners ensure a railway that is resilient and future-proof in the face of the climate changes we are increasingly experiencing.

SYSTRA has extensive experience in designing and modernising railway infrastructure to increase capacity and speed, while also incorporating measures to reduce climate impact and improve resilience to climate change.

Noise and vibration from railways

As with road traffic noise, we develop noise models for existing and proposed railways and prepare, among other things, assessments of the number of noise-affected dwellings. Based on experience from previous projects, we can assess vibration levels, both in terms of human comfort and building-damaging vibrations.

We evaluate all results in accordance with the Danish Environmental Protection Agency’s guideline limit values, and if these are exceeded, we propose mitigation measures.

Comfortable and accessible train journeys

Train travel should be comfortable, and it should be easy to travel and change trains without wasting unnecessary time. That is why we continuously help railway infrastructure owners and operators develop, modernise, and upgrade infrastructure and train operations.
