A Framework for the Study of Integrated Design of Rail Transit and Urban Public Space

Article Preview

Abstract:

The planning and construction of urban transit often pay more attention to the needs of urban traffic, and less to the needs of urban public space, which lead to the contradiction between rail transit and urban public space. The paper develops a theoretical framework for the integrated design of rail transit and public space, based on the analysis of contradictions and problems between them. First, an integrated planning method is put forward in a macro level through analyzing the interaction between rail transit network and public space system. Second, the influence factors are identified by analyzing the relationship between urban transit nodes and public spaces in all types and levels. Thus the integrated solution and pattern of rail transit nodes and public space are developed in a micro level. Third, the conceptual pattern has been applied in Wuhan city as a study case, putting forward the strategies of the integrated design of urban rail and public space of Wuhan city.
