  • The urban railway system is a convenient public transportation system, as it carries many people without increasing traffic congestion. However, air quality in urban railway environments is worse than ambient air quality due to the internal location of the source of air pollutants and the isolated space. In this paper, characteristics of particulate matter (PM) pollution in urban railway environments are described from the perspective of diurnal variation, chemical composition and source apportionment of PM. PM concentrations in concourse, platform, passenger cabin, and tunnel are summarized through an analysis of 34 journal articles published in Korea and overseas. This information will be helpful in developing effective policies to reduce PM pollution in urban railway environments.

  • Since the 1st of July, 2004, the public transport system of the Seoul metropolitan area has been rearranged. In the new system, bus lines are divided into 4 classes-wide area, arterial road, branch, and rotation lines with renewed fare system based on the total distance travelled. Since central control center known as the Bus Management System (BMS) integrates the entire system operation. it now becomes feasible to collect travel information and provide it to the users scientifically and systematically. The Purpose of this study is to forecast transit travel time using real-time traffic data coming from both buses and subway. This is significant contribution since provision of real-time transit information and easy access to it would most likely boost the use of mass transit system, alleviating roadway congestion in the metropolitan area.

  • Intermodal or transfer facilities is always necessary wherever different modes meet at one place and exchanges of passengers among the modes take place. Design of intermodal or transfer facilities requires a careful consideration of numerous legal and technical factors. This study intends to suggest the fundamental principles needed for design the intermodal facilities to enhance the level-of-service for transfer passengers as well as the efficiency of operation. Previous studies and relevant legal documentation are reviewed and examined. Steps in the design procedures are suggested, and data necessary for designing the facility is suggested. The above principles are applied to the real design of Busan KTX station in order to identify the problems.

  • For balanced development of the Sejong City, early settlement in transport infrastructure should precede the most. Of various means of transport, this study focus on BRT(Bus Rapid Transit) and the railway. Than the subway construction costs only a tenth. Equipped with a system of underground transport capacity to significantly increase the new concept of public transport in the BRT, utilizing the existing line railway to be constructed broad Chungcheong. The extension revolves 1 line of Daejeon subway to Jeongbuse kind government complex and the communication facilities is cooked for the rapid increase in the transportation demand according to the before central administration organization and Sejong city inflow of population.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to quantitatively identify the environmental contribution generated by urban rail users in the metropolitan area. Method: As for the analysis method, the mode choice and assignment of the traffic demand analysis were repeatedly performed on the assumption that each line was not opened for the metropolitan urban railway lines 1 to 9. After that, the environmental contribution according to changes in demand for the road was analyzed. Result: The total amount of carbon dioxide emissions and benefits were found to be the largest for subway line 1. However, when considering the number of stations and length, it was analyzed that the environmental contribution was the greatest in Metro Line 4. Conclusion: Measures to promote the use of public transportation are representative of environmental improvement policies, but there is a limit in that it is difficult for actual users/non-users to feel it. Therefore, it is judged that it is necessary to quantitatively present the effect in order to improve and spread awareness of the environment.

  • It is urgent to prepare countermeasures for traffic congestion problems of Korea's metropolitan area where central functions such as economic, social, cultural, and education are excessively concentrated. Most users of public transportation in metropolitan areas including Seoul use the traffic cards. If various information is extracted from traffic big data produced by the traffic cards, they can provide basic data for transport policies, land usages, or facility plans. Therefore, in this study, we extract valuable information such as the subway passengers' frequent travel patterns from the big traffic data provided by the Seoul Metropolitan Government Big Data Campus. For this, we use a Hadoop (High-Availability Distributed Object-Oriented Platform) to preprocess the big data and store it into a Mongo database in order to analyze it by a sequential pattern data mining technique. Since we analysis the actual big data, that is, the traffic cards' data provided by the Seoul Metropolitan Government Big Data Campus, the analyzed results can be used as an important referenced data when the Seoul government makes a plan about the metropolitan traffic policies.
