  Railway Stations Intermodal mobility and urban development

  In many countries, railway stations emerge as focal point for urban projects. Important investments go along with larger urban regeneration projects. The new attractiveness of the station may be explained by the recognition of its architectural and patrimonial values (especially when they are old and centric), but also by their growing importance as integrated transit hubs. A way of addressing the future of intermodal mobility consist in analysing, firstly, the way by which intermodality reshapes at the same time the place and the traveller experience. A second part of the call questions the station and its surrounding (urban places, neighbourhood) as singular places in metropolitan systems.
