Access Road Planning and Traffic Operation for High-Speed Railway Hub

This paper analyzes locations of high-speed railway hubs. The gravity model and the fuzzy analytical hierarchy process (AHP) are used together to determine the service scope of a high-speed railway hub. The hub's service area is divided into the core service area, the important service area, and the outlying service area. Based on the functional requirements of the access road system outside the high-speed railway hub area, three kinds of road network structures in the core service area are identified. The planning points of the access road systems in the important service area and outlying service area are summarized. In light of the functional requirements in the high-speed railway hub area, the layout of the access road is defined. The forms of traffic operation are investigated.
