Coming from the Airport
Taxis cost around 250 to 300 kr. during the day. It takes 15 minutes to half an hour depending on the traffic.
The metro connects the airport to the city. The closest stop is DR-Byen but it requires changing line and go back two stops. You can also get off at Amagerbro Station and walk. It is about one kilometer and takes 10-15 minutes.
Public Transportation
The easiest way to get to ITU is by Metro. You can take line M1 and get off at the stop DR Byen. From here it is a 550 meter stroll along the canal. It takes around five minutes.
From Rådhuspladsen you can also take bus 33. Get off at the stop Hørgården. Please notice, that the bus only runs twice an hour.
Driving Directions
Parking at ITU is possible east of the building. A parking fee must be paid in order to use the parking spaces; this fee is administered by Apcoa Parking and can be paid at the vending machines located in the parking lot. The parking lot is best accessed from Amager Fælledvej.
Handicap parking spaces are set up in the southern part of the parking lot east of the building. If no parking spots are available in the parking lot, which happens rarely, it is possible to park in the northern, open space (marked with a yellow X). If you park in this spot, you must inform the Information Desk about it, as this lot functions as a turning space for renovation vehicles.
Accessibility
ITU wants to be a university that gives all visitors, students or employees with disabilities equal opportunities in this building. The IT University of Copenhagen’s goal is to find the best possible solution based on the individual’s wants and needs.
