The rapid transit system varies greatly be- tween cities but has usually common fea ture that in larger metropolitan areas the underground system extend only to the limits ofthe inner city, orto its inner ring of suburbs with trains making frequent sta tion stops. The outer suburbs may then be reached by a separate commuter rail network, where more widely spaced sta tions allow higher speeds. Rapid transit systems are often supplemented by oth er systems, either buses, trams inoluging LRT or commuter cal! Metro stations are part of the infra structure that allow passengers to board and disembark from tains. They need to be functional - well accessible and easy to understand ~ and at the same time — comfortable and aesthetically ~ reflecting the hertage and modernity of engineering and architecture Thesis Statement ‘The road network for Erbil city canter must be fully integrated into a strategy forthe whole city of Erbil. a strategy to be ‘explored under the Master Plan contr The overall goals ofthe traffic intervention {are to enhance the quality ofthe exper fence of being in the city center, in terms (of improving the pedestrian, touristic, res- idental, shopping and work environment ‘The center city will be padestrian-orient 84, and the presence of the automobile will be managed in such a way as to nat interfere with that experience, in addition, three kay areas have been specifically r- ‘quested by the client to be addressed + Road Network + Parking Provisions. + Public Transportation Erbil Metro Station = 1.2 Definitions 1.2.1 Metro Station 1.2.2 Erbil Metro Station Its @ heavy rail system that runs on It's new rapid transit system that will be fa track that is completely separste from dasigned to provide unparalleled levels of ‘oad and pedestrian traffic, where trains customer comfort and finishing, togethe regulary stop to load or unload passen- _with the frequency, punctuality and cover- gers oF goods, providing related services age to meet Eris future strategic needs Such as ticket sales and waiting rooms f ‘and ambitions, ‘platform next to the tracks , connections Erbil city in Kurdistan region has ex- may be available to intersecting rail lines _perienced rapid physical and economical | for other transport modes such as buses, growth in the recent decades, resulting ‘The construction of tunnels for trains is _in severe road traffic congestion.
