Public transport interchange
Urban Design Guidelines for Victoria, published by the State of Victoria (Australia) in 2016, defines public transport interchanges as: ‘Places where people can access or transfer between public transport modes and routes. For example, between train, tram or bus mode, or a multi-route bus or train station. Interchanges vary in size and may be stand-alone, adjacent to a railway station, or located at a transport node, such as a park- and-ride facility.’
High Speed Rail (Crewe – Manchester) Environmental Statement, Glossary, abbreviations and references, published by the Department for Transport in 2022, defines an interchange as: ‘A point where people travelling either transfer between the same transport mode (for example, rail to rail), or from one transport mode to another (for example, from bus to rail).’
