The objective of this study is to analyse characteristics of Pedestrian Interactive Behaviours (PIBs) in order to propose a revised pedestrian walkway Level of Service (LOS) in China. Field data on overtaking and evasive behaviours were collected at a metro station walkway in Shanghai, China to calculate macro and micro indicators. Occurrence intensities of these two PIBs initially increased wi...

Most transit networks are designed empirically. For bus networks this process 1s often satisfactory because bus routes and networks are very dependent on local conditions, and they can be easily modified, allowing easy corrections of problems which line design may cause in operations. However, with transit systems which have extensive infrastructure, most typically metro lines and networks, cor...

There are few studies on the land subsidence induced by shield tunneling in water-rich sandy gravel stratum, which is of high research value. Linear regression and measured data were employed this study to investigate when crossing stratum from Mudan Dadao Station Longmen station Luoyang Metro Line 2. The maximum correction coefficient, ?, settlement trough width ?, introduced modify peck formu...

This paper develops and applies a method for producing constant quality rent indexes and inflation estimates for different segments of the rental housing stock. In each of the five contrasting metropolitan areas, rent inflation since the late 1980s is found to have varied by market segment. In some metro areas, rental prices have risen most rapidly in the bottom third of the rent distribution, ...

Metro stations are considered complex areas of pedestrian mobility due to the increasing congestion, a high level demand different circulation spaces. Given this situation and limited physical spaces remaining develop transport systems in urban areas, railways acquire greater relevance given need mobilize pedestrians. Within stations, most problematic area is platform-train interface (PTI) numb...

Bikeshare offers a flexible feeder mode to metro and improves the overall connectivity of urban public transport systems. Although bikeshare has received much research attention, relationship between built environment bikeshare-metro integrated use (i.e. for first/last mile) remains underexplored. Using one-month dataset trip records in Nanjing, China, this scrutinizes correlates use. A general...

Modern society is increasingly dependent on the stability of a complex system of interdependent infrastructure sectors. It is imperative to build resilience of large-scale infrastructures like metro systems for addressing the threat of natural disasters and man-made attacks in urban areas. Analysis is needed to ensure that these systems are capable of withstanding and containing unexpected pert...
