Abstract

A derelict 150-year-old railway station building in Northern Ireland has been reborn as a state-of-the-art multimodal transport hub with integrated rail, bus and active travel facilities. The 1875 Waterside Station in Londonderry was abandoned after bomb damage in the 1970s, and its hastily built replacement nearby soon reached capacity. A European-Union-funded project has restored the old rail terminus to its former role and added a bus station, park-and-ride facility and links to the city’s greenways for cyclists and pedestrians. This paper provides an overview of the North West Transport Hub project, from inception to completion in 2022.

西北交通枢纽:伦敦德里郡150年历史的水边站的新生活

北爱尔兰一座有150年历史的废弃火车站建筑被改造成一个集铁路、公共汽车和活跃旅游设施于一体的最先进的多式联运枢纽。伦敦德里1875年的水边车站在20世纪70年代遭到炸弹破坏后被废弃，附近匆忙建造的替代车站很快就达到了容量。一个由欧盟资助的项目修复了旧的铁路总站，并增加了一个公交车站、停车换乘设施和连接城市的绿道，供骑车者和行人使用。本文概述了西北交通枢纽项目，从开始到2022年完成。
