SYSTRA Denmark has been awarded the basic design studies for the transport
system, operation control centre and maintenance site of the future Copenhagen
M5 line, in a consortium with Danish engineering firm Rambøll and Gottlieb
Paludan Architects as subcontractor. Together, they will prepare the
specifications for this line and provide technical advice on the specification
of trains, rail infrastructure and all technical subsystems, as well as
identifying all interfaces for the project. The assignment also includes advice
on the operation, maintenance and upkeep of the metro.

The M5 line will serve the new Østhavnen district, furthering the modal shift of
commuters from the capital to public transport. This will help reduce the number
of daily car journeys, with a positive impact on the climate. The route, still
under discussion, is expected to be circular with around ten stations, and will
relieve congestion at the port.

### The Copenhagen metro: an emblematic reference for SYSTRA

_The Copenhagen metro is recognised for the quality of the service offered to passengers_

Over the years, SYSTRA has been involved in all the metro projects undertaken in
the Danish capital. The latest success is the Sydhavn extension to line 4,
inaugurated in the summer of 2024, four years after the opening of Cityringen,
the complete ring line to which SYSTRA France teams contributed. By integrating
Atkins Denmark, who delivered almost exactly the same services on lines M3 and
M4, also in a joint venture with Ramboll, SYSTRA now has references for all of
Copenhagen’s metro lines.
