‘Stations as Nodes’ book is out now!

Led and coordinated by the Chair of Complex Projects, Faculty of Architecture and the Built Environment TU Delft and the Amsterdam Institute for Advanced Metropolitan Solutions, 'Stations as Nodes' explores the role of stations in future metropolitan areas from both French and Dutch perspective.
