[[Nørreport Station]] near the city centre serves passengers travelling by main-line rail, [[S-train]], regional train, metro and bus. Some 750,000 passengers make use of public transport facilities every day.<ref name=nt/> [[Copenhagen Central Station]] is the hub of the [[DSB (railway company)|DSB]] railway network serving Denmark and international destinations.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.dsb.dk/om-dsb/in-english/|title=Travelling in Denmark|publisher=DSB|access-date=25 November 2013|archive-date=29 May 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160529111929/http://www.dsb.dk/om-dsb/in-english/|url-status=live}}</ref>

Copenhagen is cited by urban planners for its exemplary integration of public transport and urban development. In implementing its [[Finger Plan]], Copenhagen is considered the world's first example of a [[transit metropolis]],{{sfn|Cervero|1998|p=132}} and areas around S-Train stations like [[Ballerup]] and [[Brøndby Strand]] are among the earliest examples of [[transit-oriented development]].<ref>{{cite web|title=Transit-oriented development in the Greater Copenhagen Region|url=http://pub.nordregio.org/r-2020-15-rail-accessibility/|access-date=19 December 2021|website=pub.nordregio.org|archive-date=18 May 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220518223750/http://pub.nordregio.org/r-2020-15-rail-accessibility/|url-status=live}}</ref>
