The 15-year contract will generate cumulative revenue of approximately $260 million. The new network is approximately nine miles and includes 26 stations and is expected to open for operation by the end of 2020. Odense Letbane, the public transport authority, is expected to confirm their decision in the following days with the signing of the contract to follow before Christmas.
The new Odense light rail network will link Tarup located in the north of the city to Hjallese in the south with a 42 minutes journey. It will run through the city center and serve the central train station, the international homeware retailer Ikea and Odense university.
