The area includes Helsingborg C with associated buildings, Elite Hotel Marina Plaza, parking lots and streets, squares and platforms. The area is a communication node where ferries to Denmark, rail and buses arrive and where there are car and bicycle parking facilities as well as pedestrian and bicycle access to Oceanhamnen via Varvsbron.

The buildings within and adjacent to the area include offices, hotels, shops, medical centers, dentists, restaurants and schools. Some parts of the area are still perceived as unsafe and occasionally noisy, especially in the evening and at night. Many people live in and pass through the area, which is accessible all day.

The land and buildings are owned by three different parties: Helsingborgs stad, Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB and the Swedish Transport Administration. Elite Hotel Marian Plaza owns the hotel building. Wihlborgs Fastigheter AB rents out its premises to a number of tenants such as businesses, the city and Öresundslinjen. The Swedish Transport Administration owns the areas for train passengers, such as platforms, stairs and elevators up from the platforms.

Helsingborg C has become a meeting place for many different groups, not just travelers or visitors to shops, restaurants and businesses in the area. Various youth groups come here to meet friends, but also to go to and from school. There are around 20 independent schools at secondary level in the city centre. Some go over to Denmark on the ferries to party and come back late at night. Some of them are heavily intoxicated and disorderly. Addicts and homeless people live in the area and some of them travel to and from Helsingborg via Helsingborg C to visit LARO clinics due to the free choice of care.
The social administration’s mobile teams are centrally located in the area. The purpose of their work is to help and support young people and work preventively to reduce youth crime throughout Helsingborg. Their location within the area means that they have a good overview and can make rapid interventions. While the area has a reputation for being unsafe, it is a place many people would probably go to if they felt unsafe out in the city as there are people on the move and visible security guards. The redevelopment of the travel center, bus terminal and adjacent streets, places and passages has always had safety and the experience of the place in focus both in terms of supply, design, choice of materials and layout.

The aim of the redevelopment was to streamline the travel center and to place restaurants on the second floor, lockable after closing time, but also to create clean, fresh and visible areas to increase safety and also the experience of completely, clean and tidy. The offer has been reviewed to create added value and attract a wider target group.

In connection with the rebuilding, the name “Knutpunkten” has been changed to Helsingborg C, which is clearer for both visitors and residents and, above all, marks something new.

Kungstorget has also been transformed into a welcoming entrance square with a new modern and safe bicycle parking area. The roundabout south of the building, the Old Station Square with the above-ground platforms and the passage through the bus terminal, which connects the new platforms with the travel center, have been rebuilt and made more welcoming and safe.
