För att kunna nå politiskt uppsatta nationella klimatmål för 2050 krävs en ökad användning av järnväg. Samtidigt belastas järnvägen mer och mer eftersom varor och människor reser mer och längre. Denna tendens och politikens ökade fokus på järnväg medför att järnvägen troligen kommer få en ökad betydelse inom stadsutveckling och eventuellt även ta mer mark i anspråk. Parallellt finns i Sverige en tendens till yteffektivisering där städer omvandlar ledig mark och övergivna tomter i en önskan att motverka urban sprawl. Problemet är att det kring järnväg skapas ytor som är svåra att använda.

Throughout the history, the theories which have shaped our cities have varied from time to time. We have gone from a city development characterized by spontaneousness, where commerce and people side by side shared the space, into a function-based planning where people and functions are being increasingly separated. Regardless the forms of planning the city design causes implications for those who live there when the physical environment controls were we live, work and meet. In today's society where `sustainability ' has become a watchword the current community planning needs to be questioned so we, in the best possible way, can meet future changes. Searching for new planning strategies is part of this and in this essay the term `mixed-use´ will be investigated and analyzed in terms of its social aspects.

Detta examensarbete handlar om lokalisering och utformning av hållplatser på en föreslagen spårvägssträcka mellan Helsingborg och Höganäs i nordvästra Skåne. Det huvudsakliga syftet är att utforma hållplatsmiljöer och färdvägar på ett så tillgängligt, trafiksäkert och tryggt sätt som möjligt. Hänsyn tas även till befintliga och nya utbyggnadsområden samt spårvägens resandeunderlag. Den för spårväg föreslagna kuststräckan kallas Höganässtråket och här ligger finns förutom Helsingborg och Höganäs även tätorterna Lerberget, Viken, Domsten, Hittarp - Laröd och Mariastaden. Spårvägens sträckning är i grova drag utpekad av Stadsbyggnadskontoret i Helsingborgs stad och spårvägen bör gå centralt genom samtliga tätorter så att resandeunderlaget blir så högt som möjligt.
