SOME EXAMPLES OF UNDERGROUND DEVELOPMENT IN EUROPE

This report describes six developments where considerable use has been made of the underground to provide transport facilities. Three are part of the planned transport network for Brussels, two are multi-modal interchanges at the middle of Essen and the La Defense development near Paris and the last is an underground road junction in Rome. The schemes show how the underground can be used in solving central urban transport problems.
