Copenhagen to get free WiFi

December 30, 2008 at 9:10 AM by Esme Vos

Fifty-two Danish communities, including Copenhagen, will be getting free citywide WiFi service next year. Gratis Danmark, the project manager, is also working to get free WiFi in bus and train stations. Part of the costs of maintaining the network will come from advertising (we’ve seen this model before). Danish trains run by Arriva already provide free WiFi to passengers.
