Wuppertal main station as a new gateway to the city

Study on safety at train stations published

JSWD's concept for the redesign and reorganization of the station area at Döppersberg is a success!
The just published study uses our project as a positive example for a successful transformation of an urban space that for a long time topped the list of places marked as "significantly fearful" in the city's fear space concept. A new business bridge as a pedestrian connection between the main train station and the city center now ends at the attractive station forecourt. From there, citizens enter the daylight-flooded entrance mall with stairways to the tracks and the bus station, which has also been redesigned. Now the urban space is characterized by an increased quality of stay with a variety of possible uses and a demonstrable improvement in the feeling of safety.
