## Hoeje-Taastrup in brief
Hedeland and Vestskoven — green Greater Copenhagen: Høje-Taastrup is home to Hedeland, a 15 km² nature and leisure area with lakes, riding trails, a ski slope and an open-air theatre. Vestskoven and protected bog areas such as Vasby Mose and Porsemose give the municipality a green profile that stands out markedly from its dense neighbours.

Infrastructure — intercity trains, S-trains and motorway: Høje Taastrup Station is served by intercity trains, S-trains and is connected to the motorway network. This provides good access to Copenhagen, Roskilde and the rest of Denmark. The municipality is actively working on urban development near the station with housing, business and park boulevards.

Urban development and Nærheden: Nærheden in Hedehusene is one of Zealand's largest urban development projects, with homes for approximately 8,000 people in the form of detached houses, terraced houses and low-rise apartment buildings. The project includes a school, trampoline centre and LEGO Education partnership.
