Key Issues and Strategies for High-Quality Development of High-Speed Railway Passenger Hubs
A review and analysis of urban development stages and passenger travel characteristics suggests that the development and operation of high-speed railway hubs need more emphasis on sustainability,comprehensive efficiency,and passenger experience.Focusing on the goal of building a high-quality development hub,this pa-per defines the objectives of higher levels of sustainability,efficiency,and enhanced experience,and proposes corresponding development strategies.Firstly,sites selected for comprehensive hubs should be integrated with the urban center system,and the volume and modes of comprehensive development should be judiciously determined.The layout of the hub spaces should guarantee flexibility for future transformation.Secondly,through scientific site selection,rational layout,deliberate design,and smart operation of the hub,passenger travel distance and waiting time should be shortened.Thirdly,by designing appropriate spatial scales,convenient transfer organi-zations,diverse facility services,nature-friendly venues,and precise information ser-vices,the passenger experience can be improved.The paper concludes by asserting that continuously improving the planning,construction,operation,and management of the hub through intelligent means will be an important development direction in the future.
