Greve Strand, Region Zealand, Denmark

🇩🇰 Greve Strand (commonly also known simply as Greve) is a Danish town, seat of the Greve Municipality, in the Region Sjælland.

History Until the 1960s, the area was primarily agricultural: most businesses in town were concentrated along the coastal road "Strandvejen".

Geography Greve Strand is located on the eastern side of the Zealand island, not too far (approx. 25 km) from Copenhagen and is a part of its urban area.

Greve railway station Greve station is a suburban rail railway station on the Køge radial of the S-train network in Copenhagen, Denmark. It is the middle of three stations in the urbanized coastal end of Greve municipality, and serves the mainly residential areas Greve and Mosede.

In this area, the twin railroad sits on a ridge raised above the surrounding terrain. Greve station has a single platform between the two tracks, running in a south-western to north-eastern direction. The platform can be accessed via staircases at both ends, but facilities such as the elevator, automatic ticket machines, the adjacent convenience store and bus stops are "concentrated" at the south-western end. Likewise, the "short" S-Trains (4 carriages rather than 8, used outside rush hours) also stop at this end of the platform.

In 2016 a construction project began at Greve station. More open space, more bicycle stands, and more nice and reliable area. In the municipality of Greve, the station is a central point in the city and they want it to be a nice area to get into when walking out of the train. New, and more, lights are coming to the "plaza" of the station area. New coating to the ground is getting laid out and more green space is coming. The project is expected to be finished in November or December 2017.

The project is a 15 million Danish kroner project, where the municipality of Greve is paying the half.
