Effect of multiscale metro network-wide attributes on peak-hour station passenger and flow balancing
Analyzing the balance of station passenger and passenger flow is essential for understanding jobs-housing balance and built environment in station areas and network-wide range as well as for enhancing the efficiency of urban rail transit operations. Taking the Shanghai rail transit network as a cas...

| Summary: | Analyzing the balance of station passenger and passenger flow is essential for understanding jobs-housing balance and built environment in station areas and network-wide range as well as for enhancing the efficiency of urban rail transit operations. Taking the Shanghai rail transit network as a case study, this paper defines the Multiscale Subnetwork (MSSN) based on a specific spatial scope. By extracting the network features and built-environment elements of the stations and the MSSN, this study analyzes the factors affecting the peak-hour station passenger and the imbalance of regional network passenger flow. The research suggests that the small MSSN analysis, within 6-8 km from a station, can provide valuable results from a network-wide perspective, rather than solely focusing on individual station areas or the entire network. The regional attributes of jobs-housing balance and the transportation conditions in the MSSN range have great impact on both station passengers and flow imbalance. This research provides theoretical insights for urban planners and policymakers to formulate effective strategies for urban rail transit networks.
