Study on Passenger Flow Assignment Method of Urban Rail Transit Based on Improved Logit Model

Abstract

Abstract With the advantages of small pollution, punctuality, safety and large capacity, urban rail transportation provides good ideas for solving China’s urban transportation problems and gradually becomes an indispensable part of China’s urban public transportation system. According to the current development of urban rail transportation, the era of networked operation has arrived, and the connectivity between different stations in the metro network and the mobility of operation and management have greatly increased. And for passengers, considering the convenience of seamless transfers, the complexity of the line network structure, and the rapid feedback of real-time passenger flow information on the line, it will cause the passengers’ travel behavior to be highly random. Different passengers are choosing the route selection scheme to reach the target station will also make the spatial and temporal distribution within the rail transit network more diverse and complicated. This paper adopts the method of analyzing the behavior of passenger travel route selection under the established urban rail transit network to establish a generalized cost function and Logit model, and contributes to the planning, design and operation management of urban rail transit.
