L'émergence de la notion de "pôle d'échanges" : entre interconnexion des réseaux et structuration des territoires

subject

description

This article explores the concept of " interchange station ", through an analysis terminology. The evolution of semantic networks nodes that we detail in this work, shows a more off their dual dimension to both network element and territory. Based on a literature review, this terminology will help clarify neighbours words used in different contexts. The article demonstrate that the emergence of the term " interchange station " and its equivalent " park and ride" makes sense in relation to the evolution of these devices. Indeed, the need to "appoint" those places complex demonstrates their importance in the organization of networks and urban functions (distribution of the habitat, activity, service ...). These dynamics should lead to a growing interest in these places but not enough to solve the diversity of approaches, definitions and ways of doing interchange station.
