High-speed rail should enter the landscape in a sustainable way. Therefore, the track is lined with a natural green belt with forests, draws and infiltration polders.

All above-ground terminal buildings are reduced to the minimum necessary. The check-in hall consists of a transparent three-dimensional structure above the track, which is seen only little in distant views. The maintenance base is hidden behind a grassy mound.

The surface car park on both sides of the line efficiently serves the terminal. Trees, green belts and permeable surfaces help to better integrate the car park into the landscape. Long-term parking is located in an underground car park. Public transport and cycle routes are brought to the anteroom on the eastern side of the terminal towards the city of Roudnice.

The modern construction of the check-in hall, using current technologies, is an expression of the spirit of high-speed rail. The architecture of the hall, reminiscent from afar of a light bridge or pavilion in the landscape, closely symbolizes the importance of the terminal as the gateway to the landscape of the Podřipsko and Roudnicko region.
