This chapter advises how to travel between Copenhagen Airport, Malmö & and Lund city and Entry Point North by public transport and car/taxi. PUBLIC TRANSPORT FROM COPENHAGEN AIRPORT Taking the train to Malmö or Lund You can take the train (called Öresundståg) from Copenhagen Airport to Malmö Hyllie station, Malmö Central Station, Malmö Triangeln Station and Lund Central Station. Please check before your arrival which station is closest to your accommodation. The train journey takes only 20-25 minutes (Malmö, depending on your destination station) or 30 minutes (Lund). However, prolonged travel time may occur because of regular ID checks that take place at Hyllie Station in Sweden. A one-way train ticket costs 120 SEK* (to Malmö Central Station) or 150 SEK* (to Lund Central Station). You can purchase one in the Skånetrafiken app (see page 7), at the ticket booth or at the Skånetrafiken ticket machine at Copenhagen Airport before you board the train. Both credit card and cash are accepted. Please note that it is not possible to purchase tickets on the train. Taking the train/bus to Entry Point North To go from Copenhagen Airport to Entry Point North, you can take the train to Malmö (see section above) and then continue your journey by bus.

    SKÅNE – FACTS AND KEY TRENDS Utgivningsår: 2017 Rapporten är framtagen av Region Skåne och Helsingborgs Stad 2017 inom ramen för OECD studien OECD Territorial Review Megaregion Western Scandinavia Författare: Madeleine Nilsson, Christian Lindell, David Sandin, Daniel Svärd, Henrik Persson, Johanna Edlund och många fler. Projektledare: Madeleine Nilsson, [email protected], Region Skåne. Projektledare för Skånes del i OECD TR Megaregion Western Scandinavia 1 Foreword Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg, together with partners in Western Sweden and the Oslo region, have commissioned the OECD to conduct a so-called Territorial Review of the Megaregion Western Scandinavia. A review of opportunities and potential for greater integration and cooperation between the regions and cities in Western Scandinavia. This report is a brief summary of the supporting data submitted by Skåne to the OECD in December 2016 and mainly contains regional trends, strengths and weaknesses. The report largely follows the arrangement of all the supporting data submitted to the OECD, however, the policy sections have been omitted. All the data sets have been produced by a number of employees of Region Skåne and the City of Helsingborg. During the spring, corresponding reports have been produced for both Western Sweden and the Oslo region. The first study mission was conducted by the OECD in January 2017, where they met with experts and representatives from Skåne and the Megaregion. In late April, the OECD will be visiting Skåne and the Megaregion again with peer reviewers from Barcelona, Vienna and Vancouver for a second round of study mission. The OECD’s final report will be presented and decided upon within the OECD Regional Development Policy Committee (RDPC) in December 2017, and subsequently the OECD Territorial Review Megaregion Western Scandinavia will be published.

    Liminal Life at Railway Stations

    Liminal Life at Railway Stations An ethnographic investigation of commuters’ everyday rituals Meng Cheng Master of Applied Cultural Analysis Supervisor Department of Arts and Cultural Sciences Charlotte Hagström TKAM02 - Spring 2020 Liminal Life at Railway Stations II Abstract Liminal life at railway stations: An ethnographic investigation of commuters’ everyday rituals Meng Cheng Building functional and effective railway station infrastructures has become a strategy to encourage sustainable mobility. Addressing on commuters, this thesis aims to investigate how station infrastructures frame commuters' commuting experience. Departing from the theory of rites of passage by Victor Turner, this thesis draws on autoethnography, interviews with six Øresund commuters and observational fieldwork at eight commuter train stations in the Øresund region. Focusing on the liminal character of commuting, this thesis comprehensively examines the interaction between commuters and train stations from the perspectives of space, time and place. The findings highlight the overlooked significance of station infrastructures in making meaning to commuters’ everyday lives. It is argued that station infrastructures provide fundamental support in commuters’ needs, assist commuters in orienting themselves for transformation, secure their identity and maintain the social norm. Keywords: railway stations; commuter; rites of passage; liminality; infrastructure; cultural analysis; everyday rituals Liminal Life at Railway Stations III 摘要 建设具有功能性且有效的车站基础设施是倡导可持续交通的一项有效策略。本研究从
