Summary

The Municipality of Odense (MoD), through ODENSE Letbane P/S, the public company, is undertaking the Odense Light Rail Transit project in Odense, Denmark.

The project involves the construction of a 21.4km light-rail transit (LRT) line. The project is being implemented in two phases.

The first phase involves the construction of a 14.4km line connecting Tarup in the north with Hjallelese in the south, calling at 26 stations along the route. It will run through Bolbro, Odense city centre and the railway station, and on to the campus of the University of Southern Denmark, the developing area around the new University teaching hospital ending at the Hjallese Railway Station.

The second phase involves the construction of a 7km line connecting Vollsmose in the north with the Odense zoo in the south. Two more additional branches will run from Vollsmose via Vesterbro, connecting to the first phase at Rosengardcentret; and from Odense Zoo to the city center stop.

Parsons Brinckerhoff has been appointed to assist with project management and provide strategic and economic advice, COWI appointed as the technical consultant with SYSTRA and ETC as sub-consultant.

PLH, Atelier Villes & Paysages, Ramboll and MBD Design have been appointed as the architect for the first phase of the project. The scope of contract for Ramboll was to design all stations and 10 substations.
