Abstract
This paper is about Beijing’s rail transit network, which, as a connector between urban center and peripheral areas, has attracted many residents to travel by subway feeder buses. In addition, the terminals of this network have been furnished with Park-and-Ride (P&R) lots, which have formed a P&R system of a feeder-car organization for rail transit. The paper summarizes P&R experiences from around the world, as well as the characteristics and scale of the rail transit network in Beijing. Next, a model of P&R travel mode selection based on road bottlenecks is created. In addition, the P&R demand at Tiantongyuan, a terminal station of Beijing Subway 5, is predicted. The paper is a useful reference for P&R construction and the analysis of public-transit attraction.
