Abstract

The chapter shows the changing role of gateways, and the actual gateway shifting from a city to a series of cities in the Venetian region from the eighteenth to the twentieth centuries, highlighting the theoretical implications for the analysis of transportation networks and gateway functions. In particular, the validity and usefulness of a definition of the gateway as a point of inter-modal exchange for its historical interpretation is tested, showing how it can shed some new light on some specific changes in the structure of urban hierarchies.
