Titel: The production of urban space by the Train a Grande Vitesse: Three case studies of Gares-bis
Auteur: Thompson, Ian
Verschenen in: Modern & contemporary France
Paginering: Jaargang 6 (1998) nr. 1 pagina's 21-32
Jaar: 1998-02
Inhoud: The Train a Grande Vitesse (hereafter TGV) has shrunk the time-distance equation in France to a degree comparable with the original railway system. For technical reasons, many of the new TGV stations have been located outside the towns they serve (gares-bis), recalling the peripheral locations of the original stations with their associated quartiers-gares. The hypothesis is explored that the gares-bis might be expected to have 'produced' urban space in the form of a new kind of quartier-gare. This is tested by reference to three contrasted cases; Macon, Le Creusot and Vendome. The conclusion is reached that although the TGV has had general positive effects, this has not been translated into significant development at the station sites and they have not as yet acted as producers of urban space. Explanations are offered in terms of economic circumstances, local government reactions and environmental constraints.
