Performance Evaluation of Rail Transit Station Land Use Based on Passenger Throughput-A Case Study of Shanghai
Journal Title: Urban Mass Transit - Year 2024, Vol 27, Issue 7
Abstract
Objective Shanghai Master Plan (2017-2035) evaluates land use performance using the index of land use area for construction of GDP per unit area across the city. However, since rail transit stations are more concerned with passenger throughput, this index may not be suitable for evaluating land use performance at the stations. Therefore, it is necessary to select appropriate indicators to evaluate the land use performance of rail transit stations. Method By utilizing data on passenger throughput at Shanghai rail transit stations and combining with AOI (area of interest) data, POI (point of interest) data, and surrounding land use planning and utilization situation, the passenger throughput per unit area is defined as the indicator for evaluating the land use performance of stations. The land use performance of rail transit stations in central urban area (within the Outer Ring Inner Region) of Shanghai is evaluated, the performance of general stations and interchange stations is compared, and a causal analysis of the land use performance results of different stations is conducted. Result & Conclusion The type and intensity of land use around the stations have a significant impact on station performance. Rail transit stations located near major transportation hubs, economic development zones, industrial parks, and large commercial districts exhibit higher land use performance. Conversely, stations surrounded by areas with lower land development intensity and dense residential communities demonstrate lower land use performance.
