    Metro

    All three metro lines are in service 24/7. There are 2-4 minutes between each train during rush hour and 3-6 minutes outside rush hour and during the weekends. Friday and Saturday night (after 1:00 am) trains arrive with a 7-15 minutes interval and a 20 minutes interval after midnight on weekdays (Sunday through Thursday).

    Bikes

    One of the main reasons for the popularity of cycling in Denmark is the extensive network of bicycle paths, including innovative bridges, which form cycling superhighways across the city. This is perhaps the key to understanding why Copenhagen is also one of the safest places to be a cyclist. If you need to go further than you can cycle, just jump on the train, bus or harbour bus with your bike, and relax while travelling to your destination. You just have to buy a bicycle ticket, in addition to your own.

    Bus

    The A-buses are the primary buses in central Copenhagen. They depart every 3-7 minutes during rush hour (which is between 07:00-09:00 am and 3:30-5:30 pm), and usually about every 10 minutes before and after rush hour. The A-buses serve at all hours.

    Train

    The S-trains are hybrid urban-suburban trains that serve the Greater Copenhagen, with the exception of Amager. The S-trains run between 5:00 am and 00:30 am. Line F runs every 4-5 minutes, lines A, B, C and E run every 10 minutes, and lines H and Bx run every 20 minutes. If you want to go further afield or to Malmö in Sweden, you can catch a regional train from one of the main stations.
