The influences of passengers for the pedestrian space around mass transportation stations.-A case study of Kaohsiung MRT. / 大眾運輸系統轉乘站周邊步行環境對搭乘意願之影響-以高雄捷運為例

碩士 / 國立屏東科技大學 / 景觀暨遊憩管理研究所 / 97 / In Taiwan, vehicles or motorcycles often occupied the pedestrian space and it is very dangerous to walk along the roadside. It violated the concept of sustainable development. To reduce this dilemma, the theory of Transit-Oriented Deve1opment (TOD) offers a new concept of city planning. According this theory, the train station server as a center to connect the surrounding land and create an ideal walking environment. The idea of TOD also promotes the using of mass transportation to reduce the probability of driving themselves. For this reason, an attempt was made to investigate the walking environment nearby the public transportation stations by conducting some questionnaires in the following location: Houyi, Aozihdi and Kaohsiung Arena station of Kaohsiung MRT (KMRT), the results showed that:
  1. Most passengers of KMRT are youths and audits who mainly were students and office workers. Most of them are going to the station by walking, and the distance they could accept were less than 700 meters.
  2. The“gender”,“occupation”,“purpose to take KMRT”, and“whether their vehicle are energy saving or not”would affect the degree of their walking environment considerations. The“gender”,“age”,and“whether their vehicle are energy saving or not”would affect the satisfaction degree.
  3. Passengers more concerned about“pass dimension”which represents the passage-effectiveness, furthermore, there were three factors that generated by Important-Performance Analysis (IPA) model in A quadrant“keep up the good work”indicated that either the degree of importance and performance was high. Two factors in the C quadrant “low priority” also showed that both the extent of importance and performance was low. The one factor appeared that the degree of importance was low and the level of performance was high which is located in the B quadrant. By observing the location of factors, we could identify the passengers who were satisfied by “pass dimension” more than the “use dimension”. It was shown that the improvement is needed in the future.
  4. After examining the four factors“walk-fluency”,“walk-safety”,“walk-guidance”and“walk-images”,it was found that the passenger’s satisfaction of walking environment was positively related to their incentives to catch KMRT. Thus to improve the walking environment will promote the people’s incentive to take MRT, it also will encourage the passenger to choice a more energy-saving ways to travel in daily life.
