Track Renewal at Aalborg Station
Aarsleff Rail carried out a comprehensive track renewal project at Aalborg Station for Banedanmark, with additional minor works at stations south of Aalborg—Skørping and Arden. The project included renewal of plain track, replacement of turnouts, and removal of redundant ones. We also rebuilt the guard rail structure south of the railway bridge spanning Limfjorden, located just north of the station.
The work was performed under partial track closures and a full track closure from July 27 to October 8, 2024.

Coordination with Nearby Projects
The track renewal at Aalborg Station was impacted by other projects using the same track closures. Aarsleff Rail coordinated with contractors working on ERTMS signaling installations and concrete bridge work near the station. This involved managing logistics routes, site access, and scheduling. We brought experience from similar complex projects where multiple contractors share limited closure windows to carry out parallel work efficiently.
