Passenger friendly intermodal interchanges

In this concept, the micro-scale aspects of interchange design are at the centre of attention. Possible advantages of the measures are: minimising overcrowding, congestion, and conflicting flows, optimising of positioning key facilities, fine tuning of development proposals to balance capacities, and efficient use of space. Under micro-scale, the monitoring of passenger flows, and the design of pathways and community areas are understood. The components of the measures are straight pathways, avoiding level differences and dark corners etc.

These are inpiring examples:

	The Birkenhead Bus Station in Liverpool, UK
	The Port Authority Bus Terminal, New York, US
