Metro and light rail
Sweco provides consultancy on metro and light rail projects, and we are technical experts in the field, especially in relation to assessing rail lines. Our portfolio contains construction projects throughout Europe, such as Bergen Bybane, and we work closely with our colleagues in Scandinavia. We can assist with managing third-parties and approval processes, and have in-depth knowledge of all relevant transportation systems.
Our metro and light rail construction projects encompass consultancy in relation to tracks, tunnels, bridge work and the transport package. For example, we were responsible for the metro links to Copenhagen Airport. Our team has carried out assessments and third-party reviews for several light rail and metro projects, including Aarhus, Odense and Copenhagen light rail, and future metro lines.
We tackle our projects holistically and from a sustainable perspective. This is reflected in things like our solutions for rainwater recycling, transfer of energy between light rail systems and recommendations for alternative materials.
