Abstract

Previous studies have primarily concentrated on metro ridership and its built environment, while often neglecting the role of entrances or exits in each metro station. This oversight can be attributed to the difficulties of applying large-scale spatial data with sufficient precision to accurately identify ridership associated with single entrances or exits. In this study, we used a new type of Location Based Services (LBS) data, the commuter Origin-Destination (OD) data, to calculate Entrance/Exit Ridership (EER) in Xiamen, China. Using the Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) model, and the Random Forest (RF) model with the Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP), we explored how EER and the Proportion of Entrance/Exit Ridership (PEER) are subject to the built environment factors at the global level and the station level. The results indicated that more travelers are distributed in some regions of the island and some business parks, but these stations also demonstrate wide heterogeneity in terms of PEER. The density category variable shows a high positive correlation with EER, and shopping POI and intersection have a negative correlation with EER. Compared with EER, PEER is more relevant to more variables, especially the variables related to entrance/exit characteristics. According to the RF model, the influence of built environment variables on the EER and PEER also shows nonlinear and threshold effects. Our findings show that planners should consider the location and number of entrances/exits combined with built environment, in addition to the distribution of working and resident population. This study aims to improve passenger experience through enhanced travel convenience and comfort, providing a foundation for evidence-based policy development and urban design strategies in transit-oriented development.
出入口的位置重要吗?使用高质量LBS数据重新检查通勤乘客的建成环境因素
以往的研究主要集中在地铁客流量及其建成环境上,而往往忽视了每个地铁站出入口的作用。这种疏忽可归因于难以应用具有足够精度的大规模空间数据来准确识别与单个出入口相关的客流量。在本研究中,我们使用了一种新的基于位置的服务(LBS)数据,即通勤者出发地-目的地(OD)数据,来计算中国厦门的出入口客流量(EER)。利用普通最小二乘(OLS)模型和Shapley加性解释(SHAP)的随机森林(RF)模型,探讨了EER和出入口客流量比例(PEER)在全球水平和车站水平上对建成环境因素的影响。结果表明,岛内部分地区和部分商业园区的游客数量较多,但这些站点在PEER方面也表现出较大的异质性。密度类别变量与EER呈高度正相关,购物POI和路口与EER呈负相关。与EER相比,PEER涉及的变量更多,尤其是与出入口特征相关的变量。根据RF模型,建筑环境变量对EER和PEER的影响也表现出非线性和阈值效应。我们的研究结果表明,除了工作和居住人口的分布外,规划人员还应考虑出入口的位置和数量与建筑环境相结合。本研究旨在通过提高出行便利性和舒适性来改善乘客体验,为公交导向发展的循证政策制定和城市设计策略提供依据。

期刊介绍: Transport Policy is an international journal aimed at bridging the gap between theory and practice in transport. Its subject areas reflect the concerns of policymakers in government, industry, voluntary organisations and the public at large, providing independent, original and rigorous analysis to understand how policy decisions have been taken, monitor their effects, and suggest how they may be improved. The journal treats the transport sector comprehensively, and in the context of other sectors including energy, housing, industry and planning. All modes are covered: land, sea and air; road and rail; public and private; motorised and non-motorised; passenger and freight.
