Abstract | Integrated transport has become an important policy in developing sustainable transport worldwide. However, there are still some challenges in practice, especially in China, with its special socio-economic background. This study aims to investigate the current situation and strategies of integration between railways and other transport modes (including urban transport, highway and air transport) in China. At the national level, the location of conventional railway stations, high speed railway stations, coach terminals and airports in China is analyzed to show the spatial differentiation of different transport mode terminals. Then, Shanghai Hongqiao Transport Hub, as an integration case of railways with other transport modes, is chosen as a study case. By observational survey and interview with passengers, the performance of interchange between railways and other transport modes are evaluated by a set of indicators. It is shown that some progress toward better integration has been happening in China. However, the current state of integration puts ... |
