In brief The Triangle Region

Introduction The Triangle Region refers to the area around Vejle, Kolding and Fredericia. The Triangle Region is believed to be among the growth regions of the future. Many businesses are located in the region due to its central location south of Aarhus and relatively close to both Copenhagen and Germany. The region officially encompasses the seven municipalities located in the south-eastern corner of Jutland and the westernmost tip of Funen. The Triangle Region is a major transportation hub with almost all trans-Denmark transportation passing through the region. Vejle and Kolding enjoy close proximity to E45, the primary north-south motorway in Jutland. Fredericia meanwhile is strategically located by the E20, the primary east- west motorway. The Triangle Region is particularly popular among logistics firms due to the advantageous location. In addition, the region benefits from easy access to Denmark’s second largest airport, Billund Airport. The seven municipalities have a combined population of 421,500, the primary municipal- ities being Vejle with 114,000 inhabitants, Kolding with 92,500 inhabitants and the much smaller Fredericia with 51,500 inhabitants. The expected population growth follows the size ranking. By 2045, the population is expected to have grown by 15.0%, 9.2% and 7.4%, respectively.
