Abstract | The location of stations is one of the influencing factors concerning the sustainability of High Speed Railways (HSR) and has considerable impact on the regional development. This is important in terms of performance, competition and interconnectivity of HSR and for the future of cities where HSR stations are located. Construction of HSR stations can be the catalyst for the redevelopment of deprived areas within the neighborhoods. HSR stations can improve the image of a city and bring prosperity and economic growth. The secondary data methodology has been used in this research supported by information on some empirical evidences. Cases from countries with sufficient experiences of operating HSR were selected. Most of the data was gathered from on-line sources, reported research on HSR in selected countries and International Union of Railway’s websites in addition to considering railway statistics and European and Institutional publications. The expected outcome of this research may contribute to the identification of the relationship between the choice of location of HSR stations and the performance of HSR in addition to highlighting the factors that influence the choice of location for HSR stations. |
