Description
Odense light rail was inaugurated on 28 May 2022, and the first light rail train with passengers ran from the station called Parkering Odense Syd, which is located east of Hjallese. The Odense light rail should have been opened at the end of 2020, but the corona and other longer-lasting approvals were not in place. In contrast to the Aarhus light rail, the Odense light rail first waited for approval before announcing an opening date. And it must be said that it was a good solution, so that you did not end up with a cancellation at the last minute.
In this film we see clips from the opening day, about the design and a bit of history from Odense Sporveje.
