2,155,039 | City Circle Line City Circle Line The City Circle Line () or M3 is a future loop line of the Copenhagen Metro. It has been claimed by COWI A/S that the City Circle Line is the largest construction project to have taken place in Copenhagen during the last 400 years. Upon its completion, the network's total length shall be 43km and have 17 stations. Its completion has been anticipated to occur around the summer of 2019. Plans for its construction were approved by the Danish Parliament on 1 June 2007. Preferred bidders were announced during November 2010. The total cost was estimated at | wiki_dpr | 2 | 8 |

It shall be a fully automated line, using driverless trains and capable of routine 24/7 operations. Italian rolling stock manufacturer AnsaldoBreda is to provide the trains for the new line. The stations are intentionally similar to the Copenhagen Metro's existing ones. The transit agency Movia has projected that up to 34 million passengers will eventually switch from buses to using the Metro during each year.

Due to its success, during 2005, plans were mooted for further expansion of Copenhagen Metro in the form of the City Circle Line. As proposed, it involved the construction of a new 15.5km underground circular route, on which a total of 17 new stations along with two new underground lines, designated as "M3" and "M4", complete with emergency shafts would be constructed.

2,155,042 | City Circle Line metro network. During the summer of 2007, the Danish Parliament gave its approval to the construction of the proposed line, although it would be another four years before construction activity would commence. At the time of its approval, the project had an projected cost of DKK21.3 billion ($3.2 billion) along with an anticipated date of completion by July 2019. Transport group Metroselskabet held overall responsibility for the City Circle Line. On 7 January 2011, the civil engineering contract for the City Circle Line was awarded to the Copenhagen Metro Team (CMT), a joint venture comprising Salini Impregilo, Technimont, and SELI. | wiki_dpr | 2 | 8 |
2,155,043 | City Circle Line Another joint venture between COWI A/S, Arup Group and SYSTRA were separately awarded the civil works contract. Engineering company MT Højgaard was awarded the contract for the construction of the line's stations and the operations and maintenance centre. Italian rail equipment specialist Ansaldo STS was selected to supply the trains, electrical infrastructure and communications systems, supervisory control and data acquisition (SCADA), platform-edge doors, and the signalling system. The route's tunnels and many of the underground structures were constructed by SYSTRA, who also provided substantial project management work on the programme.

During 2013, boring of a pair of 15.5km parallel tunnels commenced using a total of four tunnel boring machines (TBMs); these were named "Eva", "Minerva", "Nora", and "Tria".

During the construction process, it was commonplace for geological sensors to be deployed in the general vicinity to monitor ground movements for the purpose of protecting buildings and other structures in the city.

It will intersect the M1 and M2 lines at Kongens Nytorv and Frederiksberg stations, and suburban train services at København H, Østerport and Nørrebro. It will extend the Metro network to the Nørrebro and Østerbro areas and København H (the Copenhagen central station). The City Circle Line shall services to many of the major | wiki_dpr | 2 | 8 |

The transit agency Movia projects up to 34 million passengers will switch from buses to the Metro annually.
