Abstract :
In accordance with the analysis for the survey results, the hierarchical selection structure of the convergence model for the light-rail transit (the LRT for short) in Wuhan is determined. The multinomial logit model for the terminals of both the origin and the destination are constructed respectively, and the parameters in the models are calibrated. Moreover, the sensitivity analysis for the main parameters is taken in order to study their influence for the probability of convergence. According to the conclution of the sensitivity analysis, the measures for the management for the LRT convergence in Wuhan are proposed.
