• Abstract:
  As a burgeoning literature on high-speed rail development indicates, good station-area planning is a very important prerequisite for the ; eventual successful operation of a high-speed rail station; it can also trigger opportunities for economic development in the station area and the ; station-city. At the same time, “on the ground” experiences from international examples of high-speed rail stations can provide valuable ; lessons for the California high-speed rail system in general, and the San Jose Diridon station in particular. This study identifies and draws ; lessons from European HSR stations that share similarities across several criteria with the San Jose area context. From an initial consideration ; of twenty European HSR stations, the researchers chose five stations for in depth case studies: Euralille and Lyon Part Dieu in France, ; Rotterdam Centraal and Utrecht Centraal in the Netherlands, and Torino Porta Susa in Italy. Additionally, the study drew information from ; relevant local actors and stakeholders to better tailor recommendations to the particular California context.Through the undertaking of ; different research tasks–literature review, case studies of European railway stations, survey of existing station plans and other planning ; documents for the Diridon station, station area analysis, and interviews with station area planners and designers–the study compiles timely ; recommendations for the successful planning of the Diridon station and other stations along the California high-speed rail corridor.
