1. Introduction : Rail and the City

2. Major Urban Issues

Five Thematic Questions

3. Revitalizing Urban Strategies

Four Macro themes

4. Conclusive Questions First train entering in Herington, Kansas, USA Rail and the City

HST Stations between two Temporal Models:

One is still belongs to the past: a Monument to Mobility

The other is under construction: an Urban Connector and a Producer of Services

Porto, Campanha Station, Old and Modern Building Rail and the City

Who are the Users and what are the Uses? New Mobility = New Services New Uses are emerging There is a Need to Observe Uses and exchange with Users.

Civic participation, Ulm Rail and the City

Differences between Tuesday and Friday Between 20 & 30% non travelling visitors on Tuesday as well as on Friday On Friday: 37% more travellers, mostly long distance Twice more people arrive or leave the station by car or taxi Three time more travellers for week ends & leisure

Gare de Lyon, Paris Rail and the City

Should HST Station Emblematic Urban Milestones ? Architecture increases Urban Attractivity A Gate between Local and Global

Torino, HS Railway Station Porta Susa 2. Major Urban Issues

Increasing Sustainability Recalling Connecting, Bringing Closer Attracting Producing Value Increasing Sustainability

Toward Zero Fly Zones ? The TGV line Paris/Lyons virtually eliminated air travel between both cities. HST from Madrid to Barcelona cut air travel in half in the first year. => Rail is significantly cheaper to construct than highway infrastructure => Low carbon, fast and reliable way to go from a city centre to another => Contributes to the reduction of pollution, greenhouse gases emissions and traffic congestion Increasing Sustainability

Supply & Demand Rail / Air, Girona Increasing Sustainability

An alternative to cars and plane

=> “Imagine whisking through towns at speeds over 100 miles an hour,

walking only a few steps to public transportation,

and ending up just blocks from your destination,”

President Obama, April 2009

High speed Rail Initiative Increasing Sustainability

Combining Speed and Slowness

Reggio Emilia, Walking Areas and HST Station, architect A. Calatrava Increasing Sustainability

First question

=> In your city, is the development of high-speed networks integrated into sustainable planning strategies on both a global and local scale, and how? Recalling

A Pier to Imagination

Orient Express Grand Central, New York Recalling

A Monument to the Industrial City => The Rail Station can be a strong Element for the Development of a City => A Strong Relationship with the Economic World => Footprints of Historical Settelman

Preston Railway Station Recalling

A Gate to the City

Torino Marseille Recalling

A Gate to the City

Ciudad Real Recalling

Second question

=> In your city, does the railway station, this new monument of modernity, keep the memory of a long history merged with the times of industrialisation, and how? Connecting, Bringing Closer

HST Reduces Geographic and Temporal Scales Connecting, Bringing Closer

A Centrality for 4 Hubs

•International & Interregional •Regional •Metropolitan •Local => Connecting Local and Global Connecting, Bringing Closer

HST Stations are Public Spaces Railway stations never had a good reputation.

Today, they belong to the good image of the city.

Paris, Gare du Nord, Monet Connecting, Bringing Closer

An Image of the City The new railway infrastructure is covered with a 50-meter-wide boulevard creating SPINA4 new urban spaces and a new image of the city. SPINA3 The new railway infrastructure and the boulevard connect “urban wastelands” SPINA2 creating new centers of activity. Porta Susa

Four transformation areas for a total size Porta Nuova of about 2 million square meters (more SPINA1 than 500 acres).

In each area there is a station of the metropolitan railway service.

Third question

=> What kind of hub do your HST station constitutes and at which geographic scale: international, inter-regional, metropolitan and urban? Attracting

The HST as an Event

The HST Station is an Urban Gate, not only for travellers

Rotterdam Centraal HS Railway Station Attracting

Attracting New Clients & New Inhabitants

Rotterdam Two HST Markets

Domestic International • 2/3 of the turnover • 1/3 of the turnover

• 30% leisure • 76 % leisure • 20% business • 22% business • 50% commuting • 2% commuting

Attracting

Architecture, an important role for the identity of the city… image branding creativity architecture

Lille, Rem Koolhaas Attracting

Reggio Emilia, S. Calatrava, 2013 Attracting

Lodtz, Architectural Project of the Railway Station Attracting

Forth question

=> What are the levers of your city’s attractiveness, and what are their connections with the railway station? Producing Value

Services to Mobility

HST Railway Stations Are no more places only Dedicated to information and travelling

Marseille, Saint-Charles Producing Value

Services to Mobility HST Railway Stations produce new services: business, commercial, leisure, tourism, … => Mobility brings added value to these services

Creil : Railway Station and Multi-functionality: Tourism, Business, Education Producing Value

Creil : Railway Station and local attratctivity Producing Value

Fifth Question

=> What kind of (new) uses your railway station generates and as a consequence, what new services, linked or not to mobility? 3. Revitalizing Urban Strategies

Producing Multi-Polar Networks

=> Group 1 : hub as a node-interface

Introducing a creative approach to Urban Planning

=> Group 2 : hub as a gateway

Developing public facilities to serve an economic strategy

=> Group 3 : hub as a urban centrality

Designing a HS Railway station as a tool for regional development

=> Group 4 : hub as a turbine Producing Multipolar Networks
