From Taulov there are further connections to the Høje Tåstrup terminal in the capital area of Copenhagen. This is well located close to main customer and distribution centers and supports the reduction of truck traffic on Copenhagen streets and Danish highways.

Environmental Benefits

Ongoing work to electrify the line is expected to be completed during 2026. According to rail providers, rail transport emits eight times less CO2 than road transport – and the use of just one electric locomotive removes 35 lorries from the roads, which means 12.7 times lower emissions. This is good for the environment and removes heavy transport from the roads.
