It now has one of the lowest shares of journey by car in the world and this –

Copenhagen has decent public transport, as long as you don’t mind the trains being old and half the signaling systems not working. The modal share is quite low for cars because Copenhagen is flat (and compact enough) that you can basically bike anywhere within 30 minutes (as long as you live in Copenhagen). This is also changing however, as property prices have been skyrocketing since 2008 (but really kicked into overdrive in 2020) and people are slowly being priced out of living within reasonable biking distance. Thus, biking to work has now taken on a class characteristic, which nobody in this place is talking about.
Also, there is supposed to be some new tramlines being openened in early 2025, which I’m looking forward to.
It’s just weird for /c/urbanism to be dunking on Copenhagen. Are we gonna dunk on Rotterdam too?
Sure Copenhagen is slightly less than perfect, but it should be a model to all the Delhis and Austins of the world.
Random shot at Delhi wtf
Delhi metro is apparently really good but anti-Indian is necessary, I guess

in a few decades you’ll get to repost this with the caption “copenhagen used to have snow”
If Texas is any indication, it might just get more extreme instead
good point if greenland meltwaters disrupt the gulf stream then my comment will look quite foolish 30 years from now
You’re going to need to start saying 25 now, 2025 is less than 40 days away
i was thinking “in a few decades” not necessarily “by 2050” but i take your point, that train’s already left the station
Sorry, in two different comment chains

see now i have to come clean and admit that i didn’t at all check the output of an appropriately conditioned regional climate model before posting
what’re your thoughts on the clathrate gun?
That’s clever.
Subject aside, that is a beautiful piece of photography
I love my trams comrades

I only went to Copenhagen once. The bus I was on clipped the mirror of another bus and the bus drivers got out and had a fist fight.
