Container Station,ProRail, in charge of the railway network in holland, alongside the so-called spoorbouwmeester Koen vehicle Velsen (the countrywide supervisor for railway structures) started out a marketing campaign to make hanging around convenient: Prettig Wachten
Travellers experience hanging around on a train station as a lot longer then ready within a car. Surveys have mentioned that holding out time has experience as 3 x longer than it really is. In this admiration especially small and mid-sized stations proof a huge problem. These smaller channels are usually unmanned, desolate, often creating a feeling un-safety. What can we do to boost them?
The waiting regions of altogether twenty channels throughout the united states will be improved, both functionally and cosmetically: advantages of washrooms, wi-fi, floor heating up, railway Tv set. Or art! Among the tips to the success of Prettig Wachten is to add human occurrence on these channels, to create some kind of informal guidance.
An effort was created to create small multifunctional outlets. In Wolvega say for example a bloom shop will be opened up, the florist may also be serving coffee and can even be cleaning the restrooms.
In Barneveld Noord a bike-repair shop will be included run by people who are 'diversely able'. They'll donate to the maintenance and maybe prevent the damaged window symptoms.
In Barneveld Noord a fresh stop will be build. Well place, perhaps more a bus-stop. But again, quite an interesting bus stop. It really is said to be a short-term framework. Hence the place will be build out of shipping and delivery containers. The pots contain space, but also form space. They'll be merged into an explicit set up. Along they form an ambiguous but strong signal. Minimum work, maximum output
Long section
Three storage containers are 'suspended' in the air. Jointly they form a 'roof covering'. One provides the installations, the other storage area. The 3rd will be opened up in the bottom. It sorts the headroom for the enclosed but totally transparent holding out area, developing a two times high space.
The fourth box is flipped to the upright position. It creates an instantaneous tower. The tower includes a clock. And a wind flow vane. Since Barneveld is the egg capital of holland - the train station is situated on the so-called Chicken breast Lines - not the normal rooster will be attached, but a gilded fowl. The tower supports a lavatory, 11.998mm high, topped with a glass roof structure. Royal Flush.
