ENTER.HUB promotes the role of railway hubs/multimodal interfaces of regional relevance in medium cities as engines for integrated urban development and economic, social and cultural regeneration.

Summary

Introduction

ENTER.HUB, aims at developing innovative planning tools enhancing urban planning and city policies in order to reach a sustainable urban and territorial development thanks to the strengthening and widening of the railway systems, particular by exploiting the economic, cultural and social inducts of railway hubs of regional relevance.
The network of local actors will redefine territorial/functional systems around these hubs, by exploiting these “agglomerates of flows” to strengthen connectivity at a local/ regional/ EU level for cities to become more competitive, to attract population and business in the face of the economic crisis.
