Pipes and cables in your local area need to be relocated

Part of the preparatory work involves relocating underground pipes and cables that supply us with water, heating, electricity and internet services. Some of these utility lines need to be moved to make room for the construction of M5. The individual utility owners are responsible for this work. They work in different locations and at different times. In the coming period, you may therefore see work moving from one location to another in your local area, with different companies carrying out the work.

You will be notified if the work affects your daily life

The utility owner responsible will notify you if the work, for example, causes interruptions to your water, heating, electricity or internet supply, changes access routes to your property, or takes place outside normal working hours. If you have questions about specific work, you can contact the utility owner carrying it out – for example, HOFOR, Radius or TDC.

M5

The new metro line will make it easier to travel between new and existing neighbourhoods and provide capacity for more passengers. We expect you to be able to take your first trip on M5 in 2036, but before then, we need to prepare the area and build the new metro line. The preparatory work is subject to the Danish Parliament passing the M5 Construction Act, which is expected to enter into force on 1 January 2027.
