Abstract:This project has aimed to shed new light on the factors that have influenced the development of mass transit infrastructure in the Greater Copenhagen Region (GCR) over the past 70 years. In particular, the project has focused on examining the role that political forces and conditions have played in shaping the timing and types of transportation investments made in the GCR since the end of the Second World War. The question of how political factors have affected transportation policy in the GCR is an understudied one, and existing research in this area paints a rather sweeping and impressionistic account of the impact of politics. The primary aim of this research project has therefore been to provide a more detailed, systematic, and theory-driven account of mass transit investments in the GCR. To this end, the study has involved investigating change over time in the balance of investments between mass transit and road infrastructure as well as shifts in the balance of transportation investments in the GCR and the rest of Denmark.
