来自专筑编辑刘庆新的报道。现今，在普雷斯顿汽车站东西两侧的柏油大道上，绵延不绝地停放着了来自英国各地的公交车。

The west and east sides of the Preston BusStation are currently occupied by an asphalt esplanade with an endless parade of buses from all over the UK.

概念图

西侧改造项目意在重新打造这块７０００平方米的黄金宝地，用作娱乐休闲用途。这块获得重生的露天场所将进一步开发成绿色综合广场，即普雷斯顿广场。

The transformation of the west side aims to return 7,000sqm of valuable open space for recreational use. This regained open space has the potential to become a green and diverse square, Preston Square.

现状

扩建后

同时，普雷斯顿广场致力于改善邻近的普雷斯顿市中心与作为标志性建筑的普雷斯顿车站之间的连贯性。Old Vicarage，Crooked Lane和Lord St.在车站西侧大门处接入，还将兴建一条与普雷斯顿广场相连的大道。为了让大门更宏伟壮观，车站首层外立面重新进行装修，并设计了新门廊。

Preston Square also aims to improve the connectivity between nearby Preston City center and the iconic Preston Station. By linking Old Vicarage, Crooked Lane and Lord St., with the entrances in the west side of the station, a new path to Preston Square will emerge. In order to improve these entrances, a new porch has been designed at the ground level of the station by modifying the facade.

外部效果

沿着门廊连绵起伏的临街道路也将进行多处改造，以期达到与普雷斯顿广场风格美观一致。这条临街道路顺势上下起伏分别连接新入口：北面连接青年活动区设施，南面为新候车区。新候车区既可与车站合并营运，也可独立运作。

All along this porch, there is a continuous frontage road that will undergo several modifications in order to connect it aesthetically with Preston Square. This frontage goes up and down giving rise to the new entrances: to the north, Youth Zone facilities, to the south, the new waiting area which can operate together or independently from the station.

新增设施

区域

普雷斯顿广场包含：

青年活动区大楼：坐落于新道路之间的空地上。
ágora城市广场：位于地下层，当代罗马式剧院，用于戏剧表演或市民集会
山景：拔高的远山。
Plaza广场：一处迎接来自罗德街游客的露天场所。

Preston Square contains:
-        Youth Zone building: situated in the space that exists in between the new trails.
-        The “ágora”: a belowground, contemporary Roman theater for scenic performances and citizens' assemblies.
-        The “Mountain”: an elevated vista.
-        The “Plaza”: a welcoming open space for travelers coming from Lord Street.

青年活动区域

为年轻人设计的青年活动大楼位于普雷斯顿广场北区，它陷入地下近乎六米。这样设计主要有三个考量：首先，可以弱化大楼引起的视觉冲击，避免对已建成的车站外观再进行装修改造；其次，可在首层释放出更多空间，尽可能地提供更加开阔的活动场所；第三，为未成年人营造拥有最大化私密性和安全性的大楼。

The Youth Zone building for young people is situated in the north area of Preston Square. This building is mostly 6 meters underground. There are three main reasons for this decision: firstly, to reduce the visual impact of the building in order to not modify the established image of the station; secondly, to liberate space on ground level in order to provide as much open area as possible; thirdly, to build a building with maximum privacy and security for minors.

剖面图

青年活动新大楼首层划分为两个区。其中，一区处理为正门和露天游乐场；另一区则为体育馆。

At ground level, the Youth Zone new building appears as two sections. One is conceived as the main entrance and open recreation area, while the other as the Sport Hall.
