ComfortDelGro’s consortium with RATP Dev, known as KBH Metro Partner, has been prequalified to bid for the operations and maintenance contract of the Copenhagen Metro. This strategic move aims to expand ComfortDelGro’s international rail footprint and strengthen its presence in key markets. The Copenhagen Metro, comprising four lines, 44 stations, and 43 kilometres of track, serves approximately 400,000 travellers each weekday and recorded 126 million passenger journeys in 2024.
The prequalification of KBH Metro Partner highlights the consortium’s expertise in managing complex metro systems, having competed against a strong field of international contenders. Both ComfortDelGro and RATP Dev bring extensive experience from major metro projects in cities such as Paris, Singapore, Riyadh, and Lyon. This bid marks the third collaboration between the two companies on complex rail projects, following successful joint ventures in Paris with the Grand Paris Express Line 15 South and in Singapore with the Jurong Region Line.
The potential contract for the Copenhagen Metro represents a significant opportunity for KBH Metro Partner to leverage its combined expertise and further establish its reputation in the global metro operations market. As the bidding process progresses, the consortium’s proven track record in managing large-scale metro projects will be a critical factor in its success.
