Railway Development: Impacts on Urban Dynamics

by Frank Bruinsma (Editor), Eric Pels (Editor), Hugo Priemus (Editor)

The role of railways in urban development is the subject of this book. The central aim is to inquire into how especially the development of high-speed rail and light rail links will affect European cities. The analyses are carried out with special attention given to the broader institutional environment of the railway system, including the shift toward privatised railway companies and internationalisation.
