Same concept but in a new and improved edition

The last part of the construction work has focused on implementing the visions that the architects conceived. Even though Cityringen broadly continues the functional concepts from the existing lines and station interior, it will still be a completely new and different metro experience.

Bright and clear spaces

The next generation of Metro stations have been created to complement Cityringen, The Copenhagen Metro’s new circle line. Cityringen’s stations will follow the now-familiar Copenhagen model welcomed by Metro users: spacious, open, subterranean stations with easy access from street level and to the platform. This design gives natural daylight inside the stations. This special quality of light has become one of the Copenhagen Metro’s hallmarks.

The design of the Metro fittings in the station area have been taken in new directions. It is imperative that the diversity of the urban spaces into which Cityringen’s stations is integrated is respected and taken into account. Local variations affect the design of elements, such as stairways and skylights. In addition to providing the subterranean cityscape of the Metro with daylight, at some locations, skylights is designed to function as integrated and attractive features of the cityscape above ground.
