Asian Development Bank | October 2015
Abstract
The multimodal interchange hub is vital for achieving a sustainable transport system. It stitches together
diff erent modes of transport and serves as the gateway to mobility and greater accessibility. This publication
presents planning and design ideas to improve interchanges and the overall journey experience of
passengers. It highlights how the hub can be a place not only of transport connection, but also of social
interaction. The lessons and recommendations presented here may be used to build the next generation
of multimodal hubs in the People’s Republic of China.
