墨尔本平交道口改造更新，激活基建社交空间 / ASPECT Studios

The Toorak Road Level Crossing Removal Project is an exemplary project in how exceptional community and environmental outcomes can be created in tandem with transport infrastructure projects.

Toorak Road平交道口改造更新项目完美地诠释了交通基建公共空间项目能够如何为社区和环境带来不同凡响的积极成果。

ASPECT Studios worked closely with consultants and stakeholders from the master planning phase through to construction to develop this elegant and sensitively integrated elevated rail solution. The project identified and then seized opportunities to create new railway bridge, public open space, play and recreation place, improve site ecology, strengthen community identity and connect previously disjointed pedestrian, cycle, and open space links.

从总体规划阶段至施工阶段，ASPECT Studios与项目各方顾问及利益相关方密切合作，致力于将密集的高架铁道桥灰空间转化为一个得体的开放空间。该项目通打造一个新的铁路桥梁、公共开放空间、游乐休闲场所，提高改善了场地的自然生态并加强了社区属性，将曾经被分隔开的行人、自行车和开放空间重新连接起来。

The project created over 6,000m2 of new public open space, which features activity areas, active transport network connections, significant areas of planting, and a new play space that makes use of the high bridge under croft space. The composition of the new open space vastly improved the visual presence of Tooronga Park and Sir Zelman Cowen Parks on Toorak Road, while introducing a new active transport network and series of well-used public.

该项目打造了超过6,000平方米的全新公共空间，其中包括特色的活动区域、主要交通网络链接、大量的种植区域以及高架桥空间下的新型游乐空间。这个全新公共空间的构成极大地提升了位于Toorak Road上的Tooronga公园及Sir Zelman Cowen公园的视觉呈现效果，同时也引入了一个新的主要交通网络和一系列良好的公共设施供人们使用。

The bridge, bridge screens and retaining walls throughout were designed to maximise local identity and to reduce visual impact for adjacent residents.

场地的桥梁、桥屏、挡墙的设计最大限度地呈现出当地特色，并尽可能减少了对周围居民视觉体验上的影响。

The project achieved strong sustainability outcomes, contributing to site ecology, biodiversity and habitat value through the planting of over 300 new mature trees and 37,000 plants and the installation of over 30 habitat logs.

该项目在可持续发展方面带来了积极成果，通过新种植的300多棵成熟乔木和37,000棵植物，以及安装30多根生境木，对场地生态、生物多样性和生境价值做出了贡献。

Stormwater from the elevated railway and the wider site is captured and discharged into the landscape by way of a large, planted swale. The swale hugs the edge of the shared path, exposing cyclists and pedestrians to a striking and textured palette of native treesand plants.

高架铁路和场地周边的雨水被收集起来引入一个大型的种植洼地，循环利用于景观。种植洼地与道路边缘相交，让骑行者和行人能够与本土乔木和植物亲密接触，近距离欣赏到植物充满质感的纹理和色彩。

The project is an example of how urban design and landscape architecture can influence, improve and create better places for local community to compliment major infrastructure projects.

该项目展现了如何通过城市设计和景观设计影响、改善并为当地社区创造更好的空间，是重大基础设施公共空间项目的一个典范。
