经过22年的设计、讨论、工程研究和修建，贯通阿姆斯特丹南北区域的新地铁线终于在2018年7约22日正式开放。

After 22 years of designing, discussing, engineering and building, the new Amsterdam metro line from the north to the south will be officially open to the public from July 22.2018.

正式竣工 | It’s finished

Benthem Crouwel事务所沿着十公里长的路线设计了七个地铁站，包括诺德站、诺德公园站、阿姆斯特丹中央站、Rokin站、Vijzelgracht站、De Pijp站以及Europaplein站，其中两个站台位于地面之上，五个位于地下。从2018年7月22日起，阿姆斯特丹的居民、通勤人士、游客以及短途乘客仅需花费15分钟就能够横跨城市的南北。

Benthem Crouwel Architects has designed seven new metro stations: Noord, Noorderpark, Amsterdam Central Station, Rokin, Viizelgracht, De Pijp, and Europaplein. Two of them are above ground and five are underground, along a route that is almost ten kilometers long. From July 22, 2018 Amsterdam residents, commuters, tourists and day trippers can travel from the north to the south of the city in just 15 minutes

公共空间 | Public space

南北路线被构想为一个新的城市地下层。地下步道和水道等路径与车站共同构成街道的延伸，呈现出开放的状态。街道与月台间的距离被缩至最短，以保证安全性和维护的便捷性。开放式的站厅感觉像是外部世界的一部分，从这里可以清晰地看到地铁轨道。城市空间正是以这种方式逐渐深入地下。

The north-south Line route has been designed as a new public layer in the city, underneath the streets and canals that have supported public and private transport for stations are also open and uncovered, functioning as an extension of the street. The o the centuries. Just like the streets and canals lie openly in the public space, the entrances to the shortest possible connection between street and platform ensures that the stations feel safe and are easy to maintain. The open entrances lead to halls that are still experienced as part of the outside world, and from which one has a clear view of the tracks. This way the public space of the city continues deep below the surface.

地质结构 | Soggy soil

在地下25米深的位置进行工程并不是一项容易的任务。历史悠久的阿姆斯特丹城区建于公元1300年前后，由于该区域的海平面较低，所以整个城市都构建在木质的支撑结构之上。所幸1990年代末的盾构工程技术得到了极大的发展，所以即使是在阿姆斯特丹这种潮湿、不稳定的地质结构上也可以在不对城市造成太大影响的情况下开挖出30米深的隧道。

The task of engineering an underground metro 25 meters deep in the soggy soil of historical Amsterdam, built on long wooden stilts around 1300, was not an easy one. Thanks to a new tunnel drilling technique that was developed in the 1990s it became possible to create tunnels -at certain levels even 30 meters deep-in Amsterdams wet and unstable ground, without affecting the city too much.

直观的导向 | Intuitive routing

地铁沿线上每个车站都是独一无二的，它们的建筑形态取决于其周边的城市环境。同时，每个车站之间均彼此关联，共享同一套设计理念：保证地下月台与街道平面之间的最短连接，以及符合逻辑的、连续无障碍的人流路线。通勤的行人可以快速地定位自己要抵达的站台。自1995年接受委托以来，Benthem Crouwel事务所花费了20多年时间来完成项目。设计中使用的现代新型材料让车站始终得以站在时代的前沿。事务所负责人Jan Benthem说：“当使用者和市民为他们的车站感到自豪，这就是对于我们建筑师而言最为宝贵的时刻。我们很高兴能够将这些作品正式交付给市民。”

Each station is unique. Its architecture is determined by the different locations and by the space allowed by the Amsterdam city plan. At the same time, all stations are related to each other, and share a main architectural concept: the shortest possible connection between the underground platform and street level, and a logistic routing that flows in one continuous movement. Travelers are able to find their way intuitively. The use of daylight as a guiding principle, and designing clear underground streets instead of a labyrinth of passages, convinced the selection committee in 1995 to give the assignment for the seven new stations to Benthem Crouwel Architects. It took more than two decades to finish the projects, but because of the use of modern, state of the art materials and techniques, the stations feel timeless and contemporary. “For us as architects, it is the most rewarding when the users and citizens are proud of their building, their station. We are happy to have reached the moment where the stations are no longer ours, but belong to the public”  -Jan Benthem

材料与照明 | Materials and lighting

车站中运用的材料均经过精心挑选，并且有很大一部分是专门为南北地铁线而开发。这些材料非常易于清洁和更换。深浅不一的灰色将车站与地面上的城市肌理连接起来，并呈现出柔和冷静的观感。透明的材料和精致的照明系统为每个车站赋予了安全、舒适和清晰的空间体验。

The materials used for the stations have been chosen carefully and in many cases were developed especially for the north-south Line. They are easy to clean and to replace. The various shades of grey connect the stations to the urban fabric above ground and give the stations a subdued and calm appearance. Transparent materials and a sophisticated lighting system ensure that every station feels safe, comfortable and clear.

地下艺术路线 | Underground art route

每个车站内均设有一件由国内外艺术家专门为车站打造的艺术品，营造出一个丰富多元的地下艺术空间。这条艺术路线的主题是“从邻里走向世界”。其灵感来自于车站周围的空间，在连接地上与地下的同时，也为车站赋予了充分的辨识度。

Every station is enriched by a work of art that was commissioned specifically for this station, creating a diverse underground art route with works by (inter) national artists. The theme for the art route is ‘From the neighborhood to the world: the art takes its inspiration from the world surrounding the station, connects the above and underground, makes the stations recognizable and provides orientation to the travelers.

考古学 | Archeology

除了艺术路线外，Rokin车站扶梯间的玻璃柜内还展示了70万件考古物品，它们均是从施工过程中挖掘而来。

In addition to the art route, at station Rokin a selection of the 700.000 archaeological objects that were excavated during the construction is on display in large glass cases between the escalators.
