Possible new railway line
The possible extension of the railway connection between
Copenhagen and Ringsted is currently the subject of political
discussions and examinations. Two solutions have been proposed:
either an expansion of the current railway line via Høje Tåstrup
and Roskilde, or construction of a new stretch of line via
Køge.
A new railway connection via Køge would cut the transport time
between Køge and Copenhagen to just 20 minutes. The new line would
not involve running new tracks through Køge, and would therefore
not affect the development of the new part of the town.
