In this study, we have observed the airborne radon levels in the subway cabins before and after platform screen doors (PSD) installation. The measurements have been conducted at Seoul metropolitan subway lines in 2008, 2009 and 2010. The mean concentration of the radon inside subway cabins were increased by approximately 53% from $20.1Bq/m^3$ to $30.8Bq/m^3$ by installing PSD. After PSD installation, measured values for the different lines were rather different, and varied between 8.2 and $76.5Bq/m^3$. And mean radon concentrations were in the decreasing order for subway lines 5, 6, 7, 8, 3, 4, 2, 9 and 1. It was also found that the indoor radon concentrations in the subway cabins were highly dependent on the management approach of a ventilation system at the subway stations. By assuming an average of $720\;h\;year^{-1}$ and $2,880\;h\;year^{-1}$ spent in subway cabin, effective doses to passengers and employee were estimated. The expected annual effective dose, in case of an equilibrium factor of 0.4, were $0.07mSv\;y^{-1}$ and $0.26mSv\;y^{-1}$, respectively.

Platform screen doors (PSD) installed at 289 stations in Seoul metropolitan subway from November 2005 to December 2009, are expected to prevent death from a fall and improve air quality. In this study, we systematically surveyed changes in radon concentrations before and after PSD installation in Seoul metropolitan subway stations. By solid-state nuclear track detectors (SSNTD), the radon concentrations before and after the PSD installation were measured at 54 stations of 6 lines from 2 to 7 reported to have relatively high radon concentrations. Mean radon concentrations at platforms were decreased by approximately 56% from 121.7 Bq/$m^3$ to 54.0 Bq/$m^3$. Before PSD installation, mean radon concentrations were in the decreasing order for subway lines 7, 5, 6, 3, 4 and 2. On the other hand, after PSD installation the order was changed to 5, 6, 7, 3, 4 and 2. According to a radon map of Seoul metropolitan subway, the number of platforms where radon concentration over was 74 Bq/$m^3$ decreased from 38 to 12 after PSD installation.

Since July 1st of 2004, a transit fare system of Seoul metropolitan area has been changed. The distinguished characteristics of the system can be described as two issues that can be summarized by distance based fare for Seoul metropolitan area and fare discount between bus and transit in Seoul city area. In Seoul city area, some existing subway users, however, complained the raised fare compared to previous fare system. An alternative, season ticket was introduced by Seoul local government in July 15th of 2004. Due to the ticket, even though periodic subway users could reduce average subway costs, the benefit of the season ticket was very limited to subway users in Seoul city area. Therefore, this study proposes a methodology to enlarge the benefit of the existing season ticket in Seoul metropolitan area.

서울 수도권 지하철 승객이 인터넷으로 구매한 채소 등의 신선 식품을 퇴근하는 도중에 이동 경로상의 지하철역 구내의 서비스 시설물에서 배달 받는다고 가정하면, 제기되는 문제는 어떤 지하철역에 서비스 시설물을 설치하면 얼마나 많은 승객들이 이용하는 가를 파악하는 것이다. 이러한 문제는 픽업 문제로 알려져 있고, 픽업 문제를 풀려면 교통 흐름을 설명하는 교통 네트워크가 있어야 되고 각 교통 흐름의 이동 경로도 알 수 있어야 된다. 서울 수도권 교통카드 시스템의 교통카드 트랜잭션 데이터베이스로부터 지하철 승객의 출발역에서 도착역까지 움직이는 이동 경로인 승객 흐름을 구할 수 있으므로, 서울 수도권 지하철 교통 시스템에서 픽업 문제는 승객 흐름을 최대한 많이 포착하는 서비스 시설물들을 설치할 지하철역들을 선정하는 것이다. 본 논문에서 서울 수도권 지하철 시스템과 지하철 승객들의 흐름을 픽업 문제의 모델에 맞추어 수식화하였고, 이를 기반으로 하여 지하철 승객들의 흐름을 기종점 통행 행렬을 만들어 단계별로 가장 많은 통과 승객수를 갖는 픽업 역을 계산해내는 빠른 휴리스틱 알고리즘을 제안하였다. 대용량 교통 네트워크와 교통 흐름에 해당되는 약 400여 개의 지하철역을 가진 서울 수도권 지하철 네트워크와 약 500만 명의 지하철 교통카드 트랜잭션들을 입력으로 하여 제안된 알고리즘으로 선정된 픽업 역들을 빠른 시간 내에 얻었고, 그 중에서 상위 10개 픽업 역들을 지하철 안내 지도에 표시하여 설명하였다. 그리고, 그 결과가 거의 최적해와 같음을 추가 실험을 통하여 검증하였다.

최근 정부에서는 수도권 주요거점을 30분대에 연결하기 위해 광역급행철도 건설을 추진하고 있으며, 광역급행철도의 정거장은 대부분 기존 노선과 환승역으로 연결되어 환승에 대한 중요성이 증가하고 있다. 환승저항이 경로선택에 미치는 영향에 관한 많은 연구가 이루어져 왔으나, 대부분 일반 지하철을 대상으로 하여 광역급행철도의 환승행태에 관한 연구는 전무한 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 수도권의 대표적 급행노선인 신분당선을 대상으로 환승행태 분석을 수행하였다. 통행량 집중정도와 요금지불 유무에 따른 환승행태 분석을 위해 요일, 시간대, 이용자 특성에 따라 데이터를 구분하여 경로선택모형을 구축하였다. 분석 결과, 광역급행철도 이용자는 환승이동시간에 비해 환승대기시간에 큰 저항을 가지며, 특히 첨두시간대에는 환승대기시간의 차내시간 한계대체율(EIVM)은 3.51배로 나타났다. 본 연구에서 광역급행철도 환승 1회당 EIVM은 2.6분으로 분석되었으며, 일반 지하철을 대상으로 한 선행연구의 결과에 비해 현저히 낮은 값이다. 이는 일반지하철과 광역급행철도의 환승저항에 차이가 존재하며, 지하철 교통수요 예측 시 일반지하철과 광역급행철도 환승페널티를 차등 적용할 필요성이 있음을 시사한다.

The Seoul subway line No.2 is the one of the busiest metro service line of the passenger transportation in Seoul metropolitan city. The number of the passengers served by the Seoul subway line No.2 is more than 1.9 million in a day according to the transportation reference of 2004, which is about $15\%$ of the whole population in Seoul metropolitan city. This is the reason why the Seoul Metropolitan Subway Corporation(SMSC) is implementing the refurbishment of the current ATS signalling system of Seoul Line No.2 into the most advanced ATO system with the continuous air-gap telegram transmission through the track circuit without any suspension of the train service either in when or in where, which is the first in the world in its attempt to refurbish the old signalling system under service without any suspension of the train operation.

This paper reports an investigation of concentrations major carcinogenic indoor air pollutants for radon, formaldehyde, and asbestos in the 83 subway stations in the Seoul metropolitan area during November 1991~September 1992. Mean concentrations of indoor pollutants in Seoul subway stations surveyed were 0.23 ppb for formaldehyde, 1.12 pCi/l for radon, and 0.008 fiber/cc for asbestos. Mean formaldehyde concentrations in 83 subway stations were below the U.S. EPA formaldehyde standard (100 ppb), whereas mean concentrations of radon and asbestos in 2% and 22% of total sampled subway stations exceeded the U.S. radon (4 pCi/l) and asbestos (0.01 fiber/cc) standand, respectively. It is likely that possible sources for radon and asbestos are radon intrusion from the leaking underground water and construction materials, respectively.

Using network betweenness centrality we attempt to analyze the characteristics of Seoul metropolitan subway lines. Betweenness centrality highlights the importance of a node as a transfer point between any pairs of nodes. This 'transfer' characteristic is obviously of paramount importance in transit systems. For betweenness centrality, both traditional betweenness centrality measure and weighted betweenness centrality measure which uses monthly passenger flow amount between two stations are used. By comparing traditional and weighted betweenness centrality measures of lines characteristics of passenger flow can be identified. We also investigated factors which affect betweenness centrality. It is the number of passenger who get on or get off that significantly affects betweenness centrality measures. Through correlation analysis of the number of passenger and betweenness centrality, it is found out that Seoul metropolitan subway system is well designed in terms of regional distribution of population. Four measures are proposed which represent the passenger flow characteristics. It is shown they do not follow Power-law distribution, which means passenger flow is relatively evenly distributed among stations. It has been shown that the passenger flow characteristics of subway networks in other foreign cities such as Beijing, Boston and San Franciso do follow power-law distribution, that is, pretty much biased passenger flow traffic characteristics. In this study we have also tried to answer why passenger traffic flow of Seoul metropolitan subway network is more homogeneous compared to that of Beijing.

The traffic congestion of Seoul city has been one of the most serious problems to be settled since the advent of 1970s. As a means to mitigate traffic mess, the authority concerned launched the construction of subway line 3 and 4 in 1980. The two Subway lines slated for completion by 1985 cross each other and run north-south direction, passing through the metropolitan area of Seoul city fraught with high-rise edifices and large-scale shopping centers, and, in order to reduce blasting vibration, NATM was executed for a distance of 10 Km, instead of ASSM previously employed when subway line 1 and 2 were constructed. Tunnel blastings were implemented, preceded by classifying the rocks at construction area into five categories, namely, hard rock, semi-hard rock, weak rock weathered rock and silt and by calculating their respective specific charges through standard test blastings, by employing the pre-splitting and smooth blasting with drilling patterns of burn cut type, so as not to cause damages to surface structures. Most of explosives used were the slurry of low specific gravity and low velocity, and the firings executed by the use of milli-second detonators. Empiric formula were also formulated to check blasting vibrations, based on the vibration allowable values of West Germany standard, for the application to vulnerable construction zones. Should the two lines be placed for public service in 1985, about 40% of the total traffic population of Seoul city amounting to 15 million as of 1984 is estimated to be carried by subway with no difficulties.
