2. FRANCE - STRASBOURG´S TRAM AND BUS SYSTEM
the first line open in 1994
ridership in public transportation increased by 43% in 3 years
today - six lines and approximately 40 km of double track
Strasbourg became the blueprint for many following systems and acts as a worldwide reference for public transportation to date. The tramway convinces in a nearly perfect urban insertion and in futuristic rolling stock design.

3. Large areas in the city centre were pedestrianized together with the implementation of the project, and the tramway was directed just through the heart of the city. Result: today, in the centre there is less car traffic, whereas the retail shops benefit from more customers.

4. Henning Larsen - Future Vinge Train Station in Denmark
Competition: Frederikssund Regional Train Station and New Quarter Award: First Prize Architects: Henning Larsen Architects Location: 3600 Frederikssund, Denmark Collaborators : Tredje Natur, MOE, Railway Procurement Agency Year: 2017

5. The proposal best connects the train station, nature and town structure as one united whole.
While primarily serving to connect Vinge to the regional public transit system, the undulating, circular urban hub is designed to prevent the railway from dividing the town in two halves.
The fundamental idea for Vinge is to develop a new town where natural elements are not simply added at the end, but integrated from the beginning of the town’s development. The new Regional train station is an example of this holistic approach.”
