철도역의 현대화에 관한 연구

Modernization of Korean Railway Station

Railway stations consist of site, structure, skin, services, space and stuff. The depth of modernization will depend on which of these layers is defective, and on the degree to which the layers are embedded. Stations function as circulation spaces, operational premises, commercial premises and beacons. The type of modernization will depend both on the functions, and on the social (and financial) benefits to be gained by improving the performance of each function. Modernization will bring stations up-to-date, and enabling them to deliver optimal performance.
