Research on Relationship Analysis between Passenger Flow Characteristics of Rail Transit Stations and Built Environment of Different Station Areas in Wuhan

China has become the country with the longest urban rail transit construction mileage and the highest construction speed in the world. Thus, It is of great significance for the construction of rail transit to reasonably identify different types of urban railway stations and environmental building factors that affect the characteristics of passenger flow. In this study, we take Wuhan as an example. We divide rail transit sites into six types (jobshousing mismatch, residence-oriented, employment-oriented, comprehensive residence, comprehensive employment, and integrated type) through analyzing automatic fare collection system data and using EM clustering method with the introduction of passenger flow characteristics. On this basis, a multinomial logistic regression model is established to quantitatively analyze the impact of built-in environmental factors on the characteristics of rail transit passenger flow at different types of stations within the passenger flow attraction range. Taking comprehensive stations as control group, the results are shown as follows: (1) The densities of road network and intersection have a significant impacts on the passenger flow characteristics of all types of stations. A lower road network density and a higher intersection density are more beneficial to jobs-housing balance. (2) The density of bus station is negatively correlated with the passenger flow characteristics of employment-oriented stations. (3) The proportion of commercial land is negatively correlated with the passenger flow characteristics of jobs-housing mismatch, residence-oriented, and comprehensive residence stations. (4) The proportion of service industry facility land is negatively correlated with the passenger flow characteristics of jobshousing mismatch, residence-oriented, and comprehensive employment stations. (5) The proportion of land used for scientific research and education is negatively correlated with the passenger flow characteristics of residenceoriented and employment-oriented stations. (6) The degree of land use mixture is negatively correlated with the passenger flow characteristics of residence-oriented and employment-integrated stations. This study is of great significance to coordinated development of rail transit construction, rail transit, and land use inWuhan. © 2021, Science Press. All right reserved.
