High Speed Train Network - Station design and development
On the 9th and 10th November 2005, approximately 40 people from different countries attended an international High Speed Train Design Workshop. Transport and city planners, architects, town and infrastructure planners, governmental bodies representatives, and both HST projects' partners, exchanged their views and visions of station and station area design.
The result of this fruitful exchange is a report: "High Speed Train Network - Station design and development" which you can find under the project documents section.
