摘要：
Bus stations in railway transportation hubs often operate under great pressure due to handling large passenger demand in short time. The layout of bus stations affects the operating efficiency and service quality of the entire transportation hub. In the early stage of planning, constructing layout evaluation system can help to identify effective bus station layout and improve the operation efficiency. This paper proposes a bus stop layout evaluation system which includes four performance measures for operation evaluation: transfer completion time, transfer volume per unit time, average transfer time of passengers, and average storage time of vehicles. The parameters of different bus station layout were obtained through the simulation method to calculate the value of the evaluation measures. To overcome the difference in operation efficiency caused by the different density of service facilities, the entropy weight method is used and a correction coefficient is introduced. The index data obtained through the simulation is weighted to get the comprehensive evaluation value of the layout. Finally, three typical bus station layouts were analyzed, including encirclement, corridor and passageway. The layout with the highest operating efficiency under different passenger demands and bus departure frequency were obtained. The wraparound layout is found to be the most efficient when the passenger demand and the bus departure frequency are low. When passenger demand and the bus departure frequency are high, the passageway layout is the most efficient. In other cases, the corridor layout is the most efficient. The evaluation system of bus stop and yard layout provides an evaluation method for the selection of bus stop and yard layout in railway transportation hubs. It provides reference for planners in organizing the transportation hubs with bus stations. © 2023 Science Press. All rights reserved.
