Abstract

This paper analyzes factors affecting rail transit ridership at urban rail stations of the Daegu Metropolitan City in 2011. Rail transit ridership is analyzed by dividing weekdays and weekends in order that their differences may be observed. The data used in this study includes various explanatory variables, such as floor area which was collected from building ledger and GIS cadastral map, number of bus routes(line) possible to transfer from urban rail transit, number of students enrolled in middle and high schools, and universities located in access areas of rail transit. For this study, multiple regression models are estimated including various explanatory variables affecting rail transit ridership of weekdays and weekends. From the study, the number of statistically significant explanatory variables and the relative effect of each variable are shown to be different between weekdays and weekends.

본 연구는 2011년도 대구광역시 도시철도역별 승하차 인원수 자료를 사용하여 도시철도역별 이용수요에 영향을 미치는 요인을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 도시철도 이용수요가 주중과 주말에 차이가 있음을 확인하고, 주중과 주말로 구분하여 분석하였다. 본 연구의 분석을 위해 건축물대장과 GIS 지적도를 확보하여 도시철도 역세권의 용도별 건축물의 연상면적 자료를 구축하였고, 그 외에 도시철도 역세권내 환승이 가능한 버스노선수, 중 고등 대학교 학생수 자료를 구축하였다. 이렇게 구축된 자료들을 바탕으로 주중과 주말의 도시철도역별 이용수요에 영향을 미치는 설명 변수들을 포함하여 다중회귀모형을 추정하였다. 본 연구의 분석결과 주중 이용수요 모형과 주말 이용수요 모형에서 채택된 설명변수의 수와 설명변수들의 상대적인 영향력이 다소 다른 것으로 확인되었다.
