Study On Location Planning When Inter-city Rail Transit Leading Into Hub Area Stations

In recent years, with social and economic quickly developing, urbanization processaccelerating, to meet the needs of traffic demand and to ease the pressure on road traffic inthese economic zone regions such as more developed economies, a high degree ofconcentration of population in cities in the Yangtze River Delta, the Pearl River Delta citygroup, Beijing, Tianjin and the Bohai Sea city group, began to develop the construction ofinter-city rail transit. Due to that China’s inter-city rail transit started late, and some issuesin the process of planning and building are needed to further study, especially the issue oftransfer between intercity rail and other transport modes, and this issue is dominated byinter-city rail transit station siting of the decision. Therefore, this paper mainly studied onlocation planning when inter-city rail transit leading into hub area stations, to study therelationship between the inter-city rail transit networks with existing rail transportationhub.The articles analyzed the current development and research status of domestic andinternational inter-city rail transit, which are based on consulting a large number ofrelevant literatures. Besides, beginning with significance of studying location planningwhen inter-city rail transit leading into hub area stations, started research content inaccordance with the logical order of the technical route. Firstly, introduced the basiccontent of the inter-city rail transportation, such as the definition, characteristics, functionand passenger flow characteristics of inter-city rail transit. Then, on all that, fromconnecting the inter-city rail transit network and existing rail stations, analyzed lines ofconvergence, site transfer and transport connection when inter-city rail transit leading intoexisting rail stations(main railway station and the metro station), then, analyzed connectionbetween inter-city rail transit and other transport modes in hub area. And then, on the basisof analysis of influencing factors impacting sitting site when inter-city rail transit leadinginto hub area, combined with design ideas of the program, established a hierarchyevaluation system, and proposed that evaluated sitting site programs using AHP-fuzzy comprehensive evaluation method. Finally, taked inter-city rail transit of the Pearl RiverDelta city group leading into Guangzhou for example, maked further research the methodapplication of inter-city rail transit connecting with the existing rail station.
