The theoretical framework addresses previous research related to integration and segregation with a focus on public transport and accessibility. The phenomenon of social mix is also described. The result of the analysis shows that improved public transport is part of the work to break segregation. Malmöpendeln is an important investment, but the social efforts are at least as important.
