Part of the new M4 Metro line is meant to open on Saturday 28th March.

The new track will run from Østerport metro station to Nordhavn, a new underground station at the inner end of the Nordhavn Bassin, and from there the track rises up steeply to Orientkaj, a new elevated station at the inner end of the quay and close to the new International School.

Just beyond the station, the elevated track stops but it will be extended out to the Ocean Quay Terminal for cruise ships and will serve the next stage of development on the outer or north part of Nordhavn.

Through the ticket area below ground and down through the escalators and on to the platform, the design for the new Nordhavn station includes red to link it visually with the design of the stations on the city ring at Nørrebro, Østerport and at Copenhagen H (the central station) as all four metro stations are major interchanges with the S or suburban rail system which is marked by it's red trains and red graphics.

In 2024 the extension of the M4 line out from the central station to the south west will be completed. This will connect the central station to the south harbour area and that line will continue on to Ny Ellebjerg and a major interchange there with the suburban rail routes for connections to the west and to the north.

Doubt about the opening date for the line to Nordhavn is due to the ongoing threat from viral infection with controls that restrict the numbers of people in all public areas although transport in Copenhagen is still running and so far there has been no announcement to suggest that the opening will be postponed.

Once it opens and once lockdown controls end that restrict how people can move around the city, the new line will carry around 11,000 passengers a day.

The extension of the M4 line from the central station to Sluseholmen and Ny Ellebjerg is to open in 2024.
