Regional planning choices : comparing the RER in Brussels (Be) and the Stedenbaan in South-Holland (Nl)

Abstract

The purpose of this paper is to make explicit the regional planning choices that sustain two important rail transport infrastructure projects, the Dutch Stendenbaan (extending between Leiden and Dordrecht) and the Belgian RER (centered in Brussels and spanning over a 30 Km radius area). Even if the two projects have so far gathered sufficient institutional support and there seems to be enough agreement on the general objectives to pursue by the multifarious actors therein involved, our study intends to show the apparent ambiguities or contradictions surrounding the planning choices made and to which extent they influence implementation at different scales and in differing contexts.
