Railway station precinct
Urban Design Guidelines for Victoria, published by the State of Victoria (Australia) in 2016, defines a railway station precinct as: ‘…the area in the immediate surrounds of a railway station. Local movement networks converge on railway stations, concentrating activity in the precinct. Railway stations also provide for pedestrian crossing of the railway line. The railway station precinct can function as a social space where people meet or watch the world go by.’
