Popular transport option
The metro was launched in 2002 with the M1 and M2 lines, before the M3 Cityringen opened in 2019 and the M4 Nordhavn line started in 2020.
In 2024, the M4 will be extended to the south and five stations will open between Copenhagen Central Station and Ny Ellebjerg in Valby.
Another M4 extension towards outer Nordhavn and a new M5 lane are also on the way.
In a typical week, more than 2 million people use the Metro, making it the most popular mode of transport in the Danish capital.
