韦斯特罗斯交通中心丨瑞典丨BIG

韦斯特罗斯交通中心（Västerås Travel Center）是在瑞典最大城市之一的中央地带建造的一座新基础设施枢纽。该中心犹如一个充满活力的城市节点和视觉地标，将连接韦斯特罗斯的各个街区和城市动线，同时在市中心创造一个新的公共目的地。

Västerås Travel Center is a new infrastructural hub in the heart of one of Sweden’s largest cities. Behaving like a dynamic urban node and visual landmark, the Travel Center will connect the neighborhoods of Västerås and the city’s flows and create a new public destination in the city center.

交通中心将与既有的城市结构实现物理连接，并形成一个横跨在铁路之上的关键性的环节，在统一交通功能的同时以一种明确的身份迎接所有的游客。目前，项目的最终方案已经向公众披露，并计划于2022年开始施工、2025年完成。

Västerås Travel Center will physically connect to the existing city structure and become a crucial link over the railroad, unite transportation functions, and welcome all visitors with one clear identity. The final design has now been revealed to the public and construction is slated to begin in 2022 and is expected to be finalized in 2025.

交通中心的角落被抬高，清晰地指示出与城市动线相关联的最主要的入口。复杂的功能空间被屋顶统一为一个清晰可读的单元，解决了城市持续开发所带来的困境。

The raised corners of the Travel Center clearly mark the most important entries in relationship to the city’s flows. The roof answers dilemmas caused by the city’s ongoing development by connecting the transportation hub’s complex programs in a clearly readable unit.

屋顶的最低点被设置在一系列桥梁的中心点之上，顺应了游客中心内部的功能，并保证了商业空间的面积不被侵占。屋顶的形式在轨道区域上方与低处节点内的宽阔坡道相交汇，从而在市中心和梅拉伦湖之间形成了戏剧性的“拉动”效果。

Placing the lowest point of the roof towards the middle over the center points of the bridges, the roof follows the Travel Center’s program, and does not encroach on any commercial surfaces. The roof shape meets the sweeping gestures of the ramps in low nodes over the track area, and a dramatic pull is created between the city center and Lake Mälaren.

交通中心周围的平台创造了Vasaparken与Hamnparken的自然连接，带来与城市空间、楼层、公园与街道相交融的集会场所。游客与当地居民可以在这里观赏风景、聚会交谈、闲逛，亦或是滑冰、晒太阳、在WiFi区上网或者悠闲地在座椅上观察城市。

Terraces surrounding the Travel Center create natural connections to Vasaparken and Hamnparken, and meeting places that act as extensions of the city’s rooms, floors, parks, and streets. Visitors and locals can enjoy lookout points, meeting places, hang out spots, playful edges for skating, resting in the sun, WiFi zones, and seating to observe the city.

连续的弧形玻璃外墙模糊了室内外的界限，确保了建筑各个方向上的采光与开放性；高效的立面提升了建筑带给人们的安全感。亲水空间将景观引入室内，游客们可以在保护性的屋顶下体验这一景致，并可以通过平台通往下方的乘车区。

The boundary between inside and outside is blurred by the building’s glazed and long curved facades, ensuring light and openness at the building’s edges, while active facades increase the feeling of security. Biophilic spaces carry the landscape indoors, where travelers can move under a protective roof with platform connections down to the trains.

为了引入更多的光线和空气，天花板在从一端延伸到另一端的过程中被切割为折线形。这一承重的设计元素使屋顶能够在四周的立面之间延展，从而创造出一个无柱式的室内景观，清除了商业空间设计的障碍。

To let light in and circulate air, the ceiling has been sliced with a zigzag line, from one side to the other. This load-bearing design element extends the roof between the perimeter of the façade, creating an indoor landscape free of pillars for commercial programs to be designed without obstacles.

Resecentrum巴士总站和综合站台区域的配套设施包括明亮而又现代化的自行车车库、旅游服务空间、商业空间、餐厅、办公室、活动区和展览空间。度假区的设施包括户外自行车停车场、出租车区、上客落客区和短时停车场等。新巴士广场的面积将是既有巴士总站的两倍，并设有37个公共巴士站点。商业巴士的线路将被转移至铁轨的南侧。

Along with the bus terminal and integrated platform area in Resecentrum is a bright, modern bicycle garage, travel services, commercial areas, restaurants, offices, event areas, and exhibition spaces. The resort’s facilities also include outdoor bicycle parking, taxi zones, areas for boarding and disembarking, as well as short-term parking. The new bus square will double the size of the current bus terminal, and have 37 stops for buses in public transport. The commercial bus traffic will be moved to the south side of the tracks.
