    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.

            i was thinking “in a few decades” not necessarily “by 2050” but i take your point, that train’s already left the station

        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

    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.
