In general, transfer in subway stations is defined as transfer between lines and station transfer. In transfer between lines, passengers change from one subway line to another by utilizing horizontal pedestrian facilities such as transfer passages and pedestrian way. Station transfer appears in the situation that subway lines of enter and exit gate terminals differs from those of boarding and alighting trains and passenger trips utilize both vertical pedestrian facilities such as stair and escalator and horizontal facilities. The hypothesis on these two transfers presupposes that all subway lines are operated by either local train or express in subway network. This means that in a transfer case both local and express trains are operated in the same subway line, as a case of Seoul Metro Line 9, has not been studied. This research proposes a methodology of finding the same line transfer in the Seoul metropolitan subway network built based on the smart card network data by suggesting expanded network concept and a model that passengers choose a theirs minimum time routes.

Pedestrian movement of passengers using smart card within stations can be divided into three types of activities - straight ride and alight, line transfer, and station transfer. Straight ride and alight is transfer activity for which the card terminal and embarking line are identical. In this case, straight ride occurs at the origin station and straight alight occurs at the destination station. Line transfer refers to activity in which the subway line embarked on by the passenger is different from that which is disembarked. Succinctly, line transfer is transfer at a middle station, rather than at origin or destination stations. Station transfer occurs when the card terminal line and embarking line are different. It appears when station transfer happens at the origin station as starting transfer, and at the destination station as destination transfer. In the case of Metropolitan smart card data, origin and destination station card terminal line number data is recorded, but subway line data does not exist. Consequently, transportation card data, as it exists, cannot adequately be used to analyze pedestrian movement as a whole in subway stations. This research uses the smart card data, with its constraints, to propose an analysis model for passenger pedestrian movement within subway stations. To achieve this, a path selection model is constructed, which links origin and destination stations, and then applied for analysis. Finally, a case study of the metropolitan subway is undertaken and pedestrian volume analyzed.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the value of information on Bus-Route concerning on the User's Individual value. The value of information is estimated with the price of time saving by using the information. The price of unit time for each user is applied to convert the saving time to the cost. To estimate the user's expense from origin to destination the previous model is modified. Bus-travel cost is estimated with variables such as bus-travel time, bus-interval, bus-fare, and the price of walking distance. In this study, to estimate in-vehicle time the bus-travel time model is developed based on the spatial characteristics distinguished by three types of circular-road in the network of Daegu Metropolitan area. For the case study, a set of the origin and destination is selected as Dalsu-gu District Office and East Daegu Train Station respectively. There are several bus-routes which can be used as direct or transferable bus-routes selected. The study showed that when the value of time for individual users is \1,738/hr, there is no benefit to using information of transferable bus-routes. It also showed that the more discount rates of bus fare is increased, the benefit to using information of transferable bus-routes is increased, and that the lower value of time is, the benefit to using information of transferable bus-routes is increased.

This study attempted to identify the characteristics of transfer trips between subways and buses in Daegu city and to analyze various impact factors that influence the number of transfer trips using a multiple regression analysis. Based on the results, this study aims to propose some policy implications to improve the operation efficiency of a transit center. As a result, it is found that the number of transfer trips is inversely proportional to transfer time, while directly proportional to the number of connected bus routes, subway's spatial location, and bus route connection index. Specifically, it is found that the number of transfer trips are mostly affected by bus route connection index.

Key factors affecting the mode share of Soul metro are investigated. The log-regression model, which can describe the elasticity of the factors with ease, is established rather than the conventional mode choice model is used. The log-regression model requires lower level of data availability for calibration and identifies the impact of the factors on mode share straightforwardly. As a result, it is found that the main reasons why the current mode share of railway is low are due to several problems such as winding lines, inconvenient transfers and unnecessary bypasses. The calibrated model is adopted to evaluate the network reshuffling alternatives. The network reshuffling is to rearrange the existing inefficient railway lines that have frequent transfers and many winding segments. The proposed network reshuffling, which includes straightening winding lines and changing grade separated transfers into cross-platform transfers, turned out to be a good measure to tackle the problems.

본 논문의 목적은 대중교통 노선배정 시에 여러 수단간의 환승을 고려함으로써 다수단 대중교통망 내에서 수단선택과 노선선택을 동시에 수행할 수 있도록 확률적인 통행배분(traffic assignment) 모형의 하나인 다이알 알고리즘을 응용할 것을 제시하고 그 알고리즘의 속성을 정확하게 규명하는데 있다 승용차의 확률적 통행배분모형으로 잘 알려져 있는 Dial 알고리즘은 로짓모형에 기초한 것이므로 다수단간의 대중교통 수단선택과 노선선택과 같은 선택 행태를 동시에 설명할 수 있는 모형적 특성을 기본적으로 내재하고 있다. 본 연구에서 제시한 대중교통 노선선택에 적용될 수 있도록 수정된 다이알 알고리즘은 기존의 결정적 대중교 통 노선배정 모형들의 단점을 극복할 수 있는 특성을 갖고 있다. 즉 결정적 대중교통 노선배정모형은 기종점간 최단경로에 교통량을 전랑배분(All-or-Nothing)하여 통행자들의 행태적 속성을 제대로 반영하지 못하고 있으며, 다수단 대중교통망 내에서 환승을 포함한 복합 대중교통수단의 선택을 효용극대화 이론에 기초하지 않고 최소비용노선에 전량배분하는 모형의 한계점을 갖고 있다. 이러한 결정적 대중교통 노선배정모형의 단점을 수정된 다이알 알고리즘은 개선할 수가 있다. 본 연구에서는 알고리즘의 특성을 파악하기 위한 모의실험으로 Sioux Falls 형태의 대중교통 네트워크를 이용하여 기존의 알고리즘과 비교 분석하였다. 분석의 탄력성을 갖고 있는 수정된 대중교통 다이알 알고리즘이 현실적 대중교통 통행패턴을 기존 모형보다 합리적으로 설명할 수 있을 것으로 보이며, 특히 다수단 대중교통망이 형성된 대도시의 대중교통 정책분석에 적합한 기법이 될 수 있을 것으로 고려된다.

In low-density areas where travel pattern is widely dispersed and travel demand is relatively low, transit operators find it very difficult to provide a reasonable level of service at a reasonable cost. Timed-transfer system or network, if designed properly, can provide a reasonable level of service for passengers using transit systems serving low-density areas. The paper intends to apply a timed-transfer system for bus lines serving Yangsan City area and to assess the effects resulted from the application. The concept of a timed-transfer network/system is briefly described, and the present conditions of bus systems in Yangsan City area are discussed, focusing on the aspects of network type and the related problems. The bus timed-transfer network for the area is then developed by adjusting the existing routes and network with the consideration of travel time, route alignments, headways and transfer centers. One must note that developing a timed-transfer network presumes that network and schedule should be developed together. The effects of the developed time-transfer system on the passengers and operators are found substantially so as to justify its introduction to the City. The results of this study will be of considerable use for planners to design the transit systems in low density areas, where in general travel activities are widely dispersed and travel demands are low, so that provision of good quality of transit services are difficult.

Transfer types at the Seoul Metropolitan Urban Railway Stations can be classified into transfer between lines and station transfer. Station transfer is defined as occurring when either 1) the operating line that operates the tag-in card-reader and that operating the first train boarded by the passenger are different; or 2) the line operating the final alighted train and that operating the tag-out card-reader are different. In existing research, transportation card data is used to estimate transfer volume between lines, but excludes station transfer volume which leads to underestimation of volume through transfer passages. This research applies transportation card data to a method for station transfer volume estimation. To achieve this, the passenger path choice model is made appropriate for station transfer estimation using a modified big-node based network construction and data structure method. Case study analysis is performed using about 8 million daily data inputs from the metropolitan urban railway.

도로 교통의 혼잡이 나날이 증가되고 있는 현실 상황에서 이를 해결하기 위한 새로운 도로의 무제한적 건설은 정보의 예산절약, 필요한 도로용지 확보의 어려움, 환경오염 문제 등으로 인해 현실적인 한계에 이르렀다. 따라서, 이러한 도로의 혼잡상황에 효과적으로 대처하기 위해서는 승용차를 이용하고자 하는 수요를 대량수송이 가능한 대중교통 이용수요로 전환시켜야 하며, 이를 위해서는 대중교통의 서비스수준 제고 및 운영 관리 체계 등의 개선이 필요하다. 이를 위한 전략적 및 운영적 측면에서의 대중교통계획은 미래 대중교통수요의 정확한 예측을 전제로 하여 수립되며, 이러한 수요의 예측은 필수적으로 현실을 보다 더 정확하게 묘사해 줄 수 있는 통행배정모형을 필요로 한다. 대중교통 통행배정은 규칙적인 배차시간과 정해진 노선을 운행하는 고정서비스 시스템으로 구성되어 있어서 한 링크 상에서도 여러 개의 운행노선을 고려해야 하기 때문에 승용차 통행배정과는 독립적으로 취급되어 왔으며, 이로 인해 그 동안 많은 연구가 선행되어 있지 않은 실정이다. 본 연구는 교통예측 프로그램 중의 하나인 EMME/2에서 사용하고 있는 대중교통수요 통행배정 모형인 최적전략모형(Optimal Strategy Model)의 단점을 보완하기 위한 것이다. 최적전략모형은 수요 배정시, 최적전략에 속하는 경로들에 대해 단순히 운행횟수에 비례하여 수요를 배정함으로 인해서, 예를 들면 운행횟수는 많지만 환승이 많은 경로에 수요를 많이 배정하는 것과 같은 비현실적인 결과가 발생하기도 한다. 본 연구는 이를 개선하기 위해서, 두 가지 대안을 제시했다. 먼저, 노선배정에 우선되는 최적경로 탐색시 환승노드에서의 환승에 대한 벌점을 그 노선의 운행회수에 줌으로써 환승이 많은 경로에 수요의 배정이 적게 되도록 하는 방법과 두 번째로 수요의 배정시 운행횟수가 아닌 목적지까지의 통행시간과 대시시간에 따른 확률적 배분을 통해 기존 모형의 단점을 보완하고자 했다.

This paper empirically analyzed the factors of operational efficiency after the quasi-public bus operating system in Busan Metropolitan City. DEA analysis result, for CRS the annual efficiency in 2010 of bus routes that can be transferred to subway lines 1 was the highest. The annual efficiency of bus routes that can be transferred to subway lines 2 shows the largest annual average of 0.923 in 2016 under the CRS average gradually improved over the year. Annual efficiency of subway lines No. 3 and transferable bus routes gradually improved from 2009 to 2015, but declined again in 2016. Among 536 routes for four years on 134 routes per year, 205 routes were found to be inefficient. In order to increase efficiency of the 205 routes, it is suggested that the number of routes should be reduced. In addition, the analysis results on DEA using the Tobit calibration, the most significant factors affecting the operational efficiency index were the time taken, followed by the number of passengers and the number of passengers transferred.
