Residents and visitors in Copenhagen are advised of increased security measures as Denmark hosts high-level European Union meetings from September 30 to October 2. The U.S. Embassy in Copenhagen has issued a security alert warning that these events will impact mobility in the city center, Amager, and Copenhagen Airport.

According to the alert, heightened security protocols such as roadblocks and sudden route changes should be expected during this period. The embassy recommends that individuals remain aware of their surroundings, keep a low profile, and stay informed through local media sources.

The Danish Road Directorate’s website is also suggested as a resource for up-to-date traffic information related to the events.

"Be aware of your surroundings.

Monitor the Danish Road Directorate’s web page for traffic updates.

Monitor local media for additional information about these events.

Keep a low profile."

The embassy urges everyone affected by these disruptions to plan accordingly and remain vigilant throughout the duration of the meetings.
