Reasonable Scale of Land Development Along Urban Rail Transit

Abstract:

An analysis of the current urban rail transit operation and its surrounding land-use planning reveals the fundmental cause of the dislocation between urban rail transit planning and land-use planning.A proposal is put forward that the maximum land development scale is subject to the transport capacity of urban rail transit line and the minimum should guarantee rail transit project financial balance on the premise of the given amount of government subsidies.The corresponding model founded on the basis of the proposed ideas is established and recomputed in a case study.The idea and model provide a feasible control method for determining the land-use scale along the urban rail transit lines.
