The line runs through the city centre and connects the main hubs of the city in 42 minutes. From north to south, the line serves Odense Baneg\u00e5rd Central Station, the new University Hospital, the campus of Syddansk University, as well as two shopping centres and the Odense Stadium. The integration of the equipment in the space (catenary poles, overhead contact line, platforms, and signage) was designed to be as discreet as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Back after 70 years of absence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>From 1911 to 1952, Odense already had a tram network. This was replaced by buses, which were considered faster and more flexible, like many lines in France. At a time of energy transition and increasing transport needs, the tramway has become an obvious choice. Two complementary branches are being considered to develop this network in the future. The local authorities will decide on the routes and timetable for this new phase in autumn 2022 at the earliest.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Key facts &#8211; Odense Tramway<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:50px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Length: 14.5km<\/li><li>26 stations<\/li><li>Traffic forecast:<ul><li>Up to 35,000 passengers\/day<\/li><li>Up to 11 million passengers\/year<\/li><\/ul><\/li><li>Travel time: 42 minutes from Tarup in the north to Hjallese in the south<\/li><\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A new tram has recently been running in Odense.
