Analysis and Calculation of Maximum Operation Speed and Average Distance between Stations for Regional Rail Transit Planning

Abstract:

Regional rail transit eases downtown residents gathering,improves living conditions,and develops satellite towns.Maximum operation speed and average distance between stations play an important role in transportation efficiency and function orientation.There are no specific specifications for planning regional rail transit in China,and foreign specifications are inapplicable.The paper researches the relationship between maximum operation speed and average distance between stations of regional rail transit,and calculates the matcing values of the two.Taking Beijing R1 line as an example, the paper determines maximum operation speed and average distance between stations through traction calculation and dimensionless evaluation model,and verifies each indicator.Each determined value is consistent with the R1 line planned value by comparing.The research provide decision support for future planning of regional rail transit.
