    44-CXP-B175 Improving Transportation in Hangzhou, China Through Citizen Feedback An Interactive Qualifying Project Report Submitted to the Faculty of WORCESTER POLYTECHNIC INSTITUTE In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Bachelor of Science By: Michael Antonelli Rosanna Heidt Emily Kolaya Ryan O’Brien Report Submitted to: Prof. Wang Guofeng, Hangzhou Dianzi University Prof. Creighton Peet, WPI Prof. Katherine Foo, WPI Date: December 13, 2017 i Abstract Hangzhou’s transportation network fails to reach its full potential because transportation planners do not take into account citizen feedback through bottom-up planning. In order to determine major indicators of satisfaction, as advised by Hangzhou Dianzi University Dean of Sociology, Professor Wang Guofeng, our team conducted focus groups, interviews, and a survey with Hangzhou’s residents and transportation operators and managers. We found that increasing network compatibility among different transportation systems will target indicators reflecting low satisfaction, thereby increasing overall transportation satisfaction. ii Acknowledgments Our group would like to graciously thank the following organizations and individuals for their assistance and support throughout our project: ● Hangzhou Dianzi University (HDU) for providing us with a comfortable living space and a beautiful work environment during our stay. ● HDU Sociology Department Head, Wang Guofeng for sponsoring our project and providing resources and contacts to conduct questionnaires, focus groups, and interviews. ● Creighton Peet, our project advisor who aided and encouraged us to reach our goal by offering his extensive knowledge of previous studies and occasional Chinese language skills. ● Katherine Foo, our project advisor who guided us to improve the focus of the project and gave us insight on the current data analysis software available.

  • Identifying Organizational and Contractual Drivers Behind Metro Accidents in Shanghai
    IDENTIFYING ORGANIZATIONAL AND CONTRACTUAL DRIVERS BEHIND METRO ACCIDENTS IN SHANGHAI Yue Chen, 4181166 Construction Management and Engineering Faulty of Civil Engineering Technology University of Delft November 2013 0 ABSTRACT In recent years, China has witnessed rapid development in urban transportation, especially in metro projects. However the safety records of metro projects is rather worrying and cannot help to make us think where actually is going wrong. Official reports have claimed that the causes for those metro accidents are mainly from technical and organizational aspects. But are the reports really telling the true story? Or are there deeper reasons that lead to accidents which are not so obvious? In previous studies, Martin de Jong and Yongchi Ma have asked the same question. They conduct their research on three Chinese cities of Beijing, Hangzhou and Dalian through Jens Rasmussen’s safety theory: drift to safety boundaries. In this theory, various incentives drive stakeholders to trade off quality and safety for other core values, resulting in safety boundaries to be crossed. All three cities represent a certain extent of profit driven, excessive subcontracting and loose monitoring which rightly match what is described in Rasmussen’s theory. In my study, I will take the city Shanghai as an example to do a replicative research following Martin de Jong and Ma Yongchi’s work. Based on the main research question of searching for the contractual and organizational arrangements in metro accidents, firstly Rasmussen’s theory will be discussed in Chapter 2 to lay a theoretical underpinning for latter research. Secondly the development of Shanghai metro system will be introduced to provide background information for latter case studies.

Evidence from Nantong Shutian Zhou * ID , Guofang Zhai * and Yijun Shi ID School of Architecture and Planning, Nanjing University, Nanjing 210093, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] (S.Z.); [email protected] (G.Z.); Tel.: +8615996541020 (S.Z.); +8615062206598 (G.Z.) Received: 16 July 2018; Accepted: 15 August 2018; Published: 17 August 2018 Abstract: This paper addresses to the rapid rise of metro developments in Chinese cities to reconsider the official justifications of such mega-projects and the underlying driving forces behind proposal and approval processes. Qualitative approaches were undertaken in this in-depth case study of Nantong’s metro project, through insights into planning documents and evidences gathered from interviews, together with relevant socioeconomic data. Our research findings reveal four major motivations to develop metro projects in China: the city’s expected improvements through the metro system, the local economic power as the essential requirement and source of confidence for project development, the inter-city competition as an invisible factor driving project proposals, and the changing domestic political economy as the direct cause of its approval. As a topic that is frequently studied in the relevant literature and often advocated by metro projects promoters, the local expected achievements in terms of modal shift to public transport, transit-oriented development, economic growth, and tax maximisation are highlighted in this case study. Additionally, in China, inter-city competition and economic-political reasons involved in initiating, promoting, and approving urban mega-projects are also vital to the whole process.
