Keizer Koopmans and Bureau B+B present urban vision for Enschede train station

Trainstation Enschede: for a combination of the municipality of Enschede, the Province of Overijssel, the Ministry of Infrastructure and the Environment, ProRail and NS we designed an integrated urban vision for Enschede train station and it’s urban surroundings. This includes a new bus station, future-proof bicycle storage facilities, parking garage, a new station entrance on the north side, redesign of the public space, green-blue structure, climate-adaptive measures and new area developments within easy reach of the public transport hub.

Working on a station quarter is an interesting but complex challenge. It requires clear principles on the scale of the city but also spatial precision on the scale of the public transportation hub. As the basis for the various components and visualisations we have drawn a reference design. The reference design gives a good idea of the objectives and principles but within the framework of the components there is still a lot of room for elaboration.
