In 1988 the Dutch Fourth Spatial Planning Memorandum (Ministerie van VROM 1988) was published; close on its heels came the Fourth Spatial Planning Memorandum Extra (‘VINEX,’ Ministerie van VROM 1990) which broke with growth centre policy and introduced its diametric opposite: compact city policy. New housing estates were to be built on large, concentrated house building sites, the so-called ‘VINEX’ sites, in and adjacent to towns. Hundreds of thousands of homes were built on these sites, especially between 1995 and 2005.
2005). The aim of this chapter is to help fill this information gap by explicitly linking exploration of the development dynamics to exploration of potential development strategies. This is done in two steps. In the first part of the chapter, I introduce an analytical tool to enhance insight in the development dynamics of station areas in urban networks, a ‘node-place model,’ based on Bertolini (1999). Its workings are illustrated by an application to station areas in the Amsterdam and Utrecht urban regions.
This poly-nuclear regional development appears to be a more general European phenomenon (Meijers 2005). Policy of the European Commission is increasingly important; however, it does not pay sufficient attention to the synergy between urban development and infrastructure policy: the Commission is responsible for infrastructure policy at the European scale, but not for spatial policy or urban policy. As a result, the European Commission cannot provide synergy and integration between infrastructure policy and spatial policy.
