Danes are moving back to Copenhagen. • The fixed link has up till today created positive value within the region: 7,6 billion Euro - mostly due to labor comuting across the sound. • Growing population in the region and the main cities – Copehagen and Malmø • possibilities for a more integrated labor marked • need for more housing on both sides • need for better infrastructure connecting the core cities
By 2025 there willbe ca. 4 mio. Inhabitants in the Copenhagen – Malmo region
