As passengers feel uneasy about the subway since the fire accident on subway trains in Taegu, this research is intended to appraise the influence of safety upon the customer-satisfaction for the Metropolitan subway. Using the framework of the Korea Gallup survey, a new survey which includes questions regarding safety was conducted and the results are analyzed to show the differences between before and after the accident.

The Land price in Tokyo Vicinity was, increased 65.3% than Last year. so, it trend to get Subway constructed in deeper Underground. But, the subway Construction Cost is more increaseel beeause it is needed long works term, all modernized facilities beside that, deeper subway cocstruction works brought another task such as deeper entrance shaft sinking, Ventilation escapeway, all Underground water Treatment. In addition, Civil Act must be also amended became at Present landowner covers ground and Underground.

This study was performed to evaluate the whole-vibration of the subway drivers. Measurement, evaluation and assessment were based on the ISO 2631. When the vibration levels of the drivers are compared with the health guidance caution zones of the ISO 2631, those of the drivers of the rail maintenance train and the number 3 subway line exceed the limit of the health guidance zones, while those of the drivers of other subway lines drivers are below the limit. This indicates that the rail maintenance train drivers are exposed to potential health risks.

Taegu subway fire accident happened on 18th February this year, which was recorded as the 2nd biggest subway accident in the world. The accident was inspected and reviewed by Task Force Team of MOCT and KRRI, which results in the integrated safety plan for subway system. Among the safety plan. this report describes the analysis of the accident causes and safety plan in the field of rolling stock.

The main purpose of this study was to provide basic data for better design of subway station based on universal design principle. Conclusions based on the findings ate as follows: Checklists were developed to evaluate the subway stations facilities based on universal design principles Modified and/or complementary lists can be employed to develop the evaluation tools and can construct a database for defining the standard items in order to improve the facilites.

Recently, the Korean government promoted the construction of metropolitan express subway to connect major transportation hub in the metropolitan area within 30 minutes. Most stations of the metropolitan express subway are connected to existing subway stations, so the importance of transfer increased. Although many studies have been conducted on the effect of transfer penalty on route choice, there are few studies on the transfer behavior of the metropolitan express subway. Therefore, in this study, a transfer behavior analysis was conducted on the Shinbundang Line, a representative metropolitan express subway. To analyze the transfer behavior according to the degree of traffic congestion and the presence of fare payment, route choice models were made using transport card data divided according to week, time, and user characteristics. As a result of the analysis, users of the metropolitan express subway had greater disutility to the transfer waiting time compared to the transfer moving time. Furthermore, especially during the peak time, EIVM(Equivalent in-vehicle minutes) of the transfer waiting time was 3.51. In this study, EIVM for metropolitan express subway users were analyzed to be 2.6 minutes, which is significantly lower than the results of previous studies on subways. This suggests that there is a difference in the transfer penalty between subways and metropolitan express subway, and that it is necessary to apply the transfer penalty between subways and express subway differently when forecasting subway traffic demand.

Among public transportation facilities within urban area, electric railway (subway) has been a regionally based facility that has played an important role in improving the foundation of territory development and arrangement of living foundation and living environment while supplementing the regional road network. In this regard, the subway stations should be allocated in the right place to ensure mobility, convenience and economic feasibility, some of transportation characteristics of road network combined with the subway. However, it would be very hard to evaluate quantitatively the effects of public transportation facilities such as subway in metropolitan cities on regional development and change in land use and to suggest the data that would be utilized in future city planning corresponding to their results. Therefore, this study evaluated the change in land use by the conditions of location of subway stations quantitatively; then, it evaluated and analyzed the change in land use for the internal and external parts of the surrounding areas of subway stations through the GIS spatial analysis and classification of landsat TM satellite image for utilizing it as reference material for the new establishment of subway stations in the future.

There is an increasing trend each year in the number of subway users due to increase in the traffic volume. As the number of train service has risen, the subway drivers are given heavy work and from the same, are put at risk of mental health deterioration due to stress. As this is directly connected to safety, there is an urgent need for improvement of the situation. Therefore, as a way to appropriately relieve such stress, resting space where mental and physical energy can be recharged is necessary. Thus, this research conducted a survey of demand with subway drivers as subjects in order to provide resting space that can offer healthy rest and increase work effectiveness. 50 subway drivers were the subjects of this survey. As a result of analyzing the contents of the survey, environmental satisfaction was shown to be the lowest compared to psychological and morphological satisfaction. In the case of sleeping room, they wanted more comfortable and individual space. And the waiting room had the highest rate of usage frequency. The storage space was where the subway drivers showed the strongest attachment and was shown to be the only personal space. Most were shown to be satisfied with the outdoor space, but it had the lowest usage frequency. In addition, it is nessasery customized storage cabinet designed for subway drivers should be produced, which can effectively arrange the limited space. I hope that these direction of improvement can increase the healthy rest and work effectiveness of the locomotive engineers as it is directly being connected to the health and safety of the citizens.

To effectively reduce PM10 generated in concourses and platforms of subway stations, a research is being conducted to find the PM10 source. The main source of PM10 in subway stations was PM10 generated in the main line tunnels, which was generated in proportion to the frequency of the train operation. Each amount of the PM10 generated when the train was operated once, was constant regardless of the time. On the assumption that the PM10 level in a tunnel of a line is a sum of newly generated amount of dust when the subway passes and the amount carried from the adjacent stations by the wind generated from the subway rolling stocks, the method which estimates the intensive PM10 occurring section was developed and applied to the 12 stations between Cheongdam and Jangseungbaegi in Seoul Subway Line 7.

Subway in Korea, most of a metropolitan public transport use only worth ten million people a day floating population of wireless communication can be considered HOT SOPT. These three operators' 2G/3G/4G / Wi-Fi / T-DMB frequency and the number of services to co-exist, and the subway train passengers and subway party for operation and management of the communication network is also the co-subway passenger safety and for this service for the effects of mutual interference of whether the verification was necessary. This research and testing different frequency / communication interference between services and testing to determine whether, through the subway authorities and mobile operators in each frequency-specific interaction check and there is no interference to the safety and quality of subway passengers communication services that can be verified as the data was found. The verification methods in the metro area, not just from one region to determine whether the interference with a common verification methods can be applied.
