Abstract
The renewal of rail transport brings railway station districts back in the spotlight and raises the question about their (re)development. Whereas the strategies to be implemented must be geared chiefly to transport mode shift, they also provide an opportunity to revitalise these areas and to rebuilt the city around a bolstered central core. These strategies vary depending on the type of station. Sixty (60) Walloon stations have been described according to three criteria: passenger flow (departure/arrivals, people going to and from work/school …), land occupation in the district (including available land reserves), and access by the various modes of transport. On this basis, general guidelines for improvement have been established.
