## About this tender

This tender presents a substantial opportunity for prospective contractors to bid for the M5 Civil Works South (CWS) package, an important component of the Copenhagen metro system's expansion. This project is of significant strategic importance, as the M5 line is a fully automated driverless metro system that will not only enhance passenger service on existing metro corridors but also extend connectivity to emerging urban development areas, including Kløverparken, Refshaleøen, and Lynetteholm in the East Harbour. The M5 is designed to operate as an independent system, ensuring that its construction and subsequent operation do not disrupt the existing M1-M4 metro lines. MAIN COMPONENTS OF THE M5 CIVIL WORK The M5 south consists of approx 6.5 km twin bored TBM tunnels, 5 underground stations (incl. 3 transfer stations), 2 underground crossovers, 1 shaft, 5 cross passages, 1 ramp, approx 2.0 km viaduct, 1 elevated station, 1 viaduct cross-over, 1 elevated bifurcation, short embankment sections. For further details on scope ref. is made to M5-2.1-CMBS-SW and M5-2.2-CWS-SW PHASES: The current tender, Phase 1, encompasses the southern section of the line, from north-west of København H to north of v/Prags Boulevard, with an anticipated operational commencement in 2036. The broader vision includes phase 2 north of v/Prags Boulevard to Lynetteholm opening in 2045 and a potential future extension to form a ring line, signifying a long-term commitment to urban mobility. Phase 2 is not included in this tender. CONTRACT SPLIT OF M5: The M5 project as a whole consists of several contracts: • M5 Civil Works South (this contract) • M5 Transportation System South contract (tendered out as a separate contract in June 2026) • Operation and Maintenance contract (will be tendered out at a later stage) • Enabling Works contracts, e.g. relocation of utilities, relocation works at Kh etc. (enabling works will be tendered out in separate contracts) • Station and Shaft areas (will be tendered out at a later stage) • Canopy contracts (will be tendered out at a later stage). CONTRACT The contract is structured as a design & build contract under ABT18 terms, placing comprehensive responsibility for both design and execution upon the Contractor. This two-phase approach-design followed by execution-is a standard framework for complex infrastructure projects. A market dialogue has been carried out before issuing the tender. The purpose of the market dialogue was to ensure that the project is attractive to the market, and to ensure competitive and compliant final tenders to be used as basis for the award of contract. Metroselskabet I/S is grateful for the potential tenderers who took their time to participate in the dialogue and provided input.
