Research on Model of Traffic Mode Choices in Urban Railway Passenger Hub Based on Combined RP/SP Data

The Railway Passenger Station is the joint which link the inside and outside of passenger transportation. The study on how the passenger to choose the traffic modes when they leave the station is the basis of study on transfer behavior in hub. According the survey and data analysis, this paper discussed the characteristics of tradition railway and PDL (Passenger Dedicated Lines) and then gave some suggestion about the problem of transport in urban railway passenger hub. It analyzed the passengers´ transfer attributes including trip purpose ,, structure, travel time, and the transfer characteristics between the train and other traffic modes as urban rail transit, bus, long-distance bus or intra-city car. Considering the HanKou Train station without urban rail transit, the paper built the model of traffic mode choices in urban railway passenger hub based on combined RP/SP data, using the survey methods of the RP and SP data. The result can provides the theory foundation for the most reasonable arrangement of traffic capacity and the optimal combination of traffic modes.
