Most people know that the National Park Service cares for national parks, a network of over 420 natural, cultural and recreational sites across the nation. The treasures in this system – the first of its kind in the world – have been set aside by the American people to preserve, protect, and share the legacies of this land.
People from all around the world visit national parks to experience America's story, marvel at the natural wonders, and have fun. Places like the Grand Canyon, the Statue of Liberty, and Gettysburg are popular destinations, but so too are the hundreds of lesser known yet equally meaningful gems like Rosie the Riveter in California, Boston Harbor Islands in Massachusetts, and Russell Cave in Alabama.
The American system of national parks was the first of its kind in the world, and provides a living model for other nations wishing to establish and manage their own protected areas. The park service actively consults with these Nations, sharing what we've learned, and gaining knowledge from the experience of others.
Beyond national parks, the National Park Service helps communities across America preserve and enhance important local heritage and close-to-home recreational opportunities. Grants and assistance are offered to register, record and save historic places; create community parks and local recreation facilities; conserve rivers and streams, and develop trails and greenways.
Every week, more than 2 million passengers use the Copenhagen Metro, and the number is increasing day by day. Copenhagen currently has four metro lines. An extension of the M4 line northbound is under way, and we are planning a possible new fifth metro line to open in 2035.
In addition, we are well underway with the construction of the capital's new light rail between Lyngby and Ishøj. The construction of both the current and future lines are projects of an international scale.
As an employee, you become part of a professional community with complex tasks, skilled colleagues and managers who create a good framework for innovative tasks. We work together and develop through large projects that are characterized by high demands for quality, innovation, and operational stability. You gain more influence and get to contribute from day one when you offer new ideas, suggestions, and solutions.
We are an international team with different tasks, backgrounds, and life situations. That is why we work together to ensure individual frameworks that suit your task, who you are and where you are in life. None of us are the same, and you must be able to be yourself, also when you are at work.
The Copenhagen Metro is owned by Copenhagen Municipality, Frederiksberg Municipality and the State, while the The Greater Copenhagen Light Rail is owned by 11 surrounding municipalities and the Capital Region. Read more about The Copenhagen Metro at m.dk
