Nach Neuordnung der Gleise im Bereich der Achterbrücke wäre eine vom Fernverkehr getrennte TramTrain-Trasse möglich. Ferner könnten die vorhandenen Trassen links der Saar in einen kleinen Ring über Grossrosseln bis nach Forbach und einen großen Ring über Wadgassen - Überherrn einbezogen werden. Gewissermaßen ein Nebeneffekt dieser Überlegungen war die Erkenntnis, dass die bislang eingesetzten in Anschaffung und Betrieb teuren Zweisystemfahrzeuge nur für Teilstrecken benötigt werden. Die 15 KV- Bahnstromtechnik ist bei vielen Fahrten nur auf dem Abschnitt Römerkastell - Brebach und zukünftig, d.h. nach Elektrifizierung der Bahnstrecke bis Lebach, auf dem Abschnitt Lebach - Lebach-Jabach erforderlich. Nur für die Fahrten bis Hanweiler bzw. Saargemünd ist die Zweisystemtechnik auf einer längeren Strecke erforderlich. Um bei einem Großteil der Fahrten auch 750 V-Fahrzeuge einsetzen zu können, wurde in Ried/Stengel 2014 vorgeschlagen, die Linien an der Haltestelle Römerkastell enden zu lassen und von dort einen Zugang zur Werkstatt unter der Brücke durch über die Brebacher Landstraße zu bauen. Damit können auch Fördergelder für den Brückenbau gesichert werden. G.

  • A Study on Connectivity and Accessibility Between Tram Stops and Public Facilities: a Case Study in the Historic Cities of Europe
    Urban Street Design & Planning 73 A study on connectivity and accessibility between tram stops and public facilities: a case study in the historic cities of Europe Y. Kitao1 & K. Hirano2 1Kyoto Women’s University, Japan 2Kei Atelier, Yame, Fukuoka, Japan Abstract The purpose of this paper is to understand urban structures in terms of tram networks by using the examples of historic cities in Europe. We have incorporated the concept of interconnectivity and accessibility between public facilities and tram stops to examine how European cities, which have built world class public transportation systems, use the tram network in relationship to their public facilities. We selected western European tram-type cities which have a bus system, but no subway system, and we focused on 24 historic cities with populations from 100,000 to 200,000, which is the optimum size for a large-scale community. In order to analyze the relationship, we mapped the ‘pedestrian accessible area’ from any tram station in the city, and analyzed how many public facilities and pedestrian streets were in this area. As a result, we were able to compare the urban space structures of these cities in terms of the accessibility and connectivity between their tram stops and their public facilities. Thus we could understand the features which determined the relationship between urban space and urban facilities. This enabled us to evaluate which of our target cities was the most pedestrian orientated city. Finally, we were able to define five categories of tram-type cities. These findings have provided us with a means to recognize the urban space structure of a city, which will help us to improve city planning in Japan.

  • China Railway + Transit Exhibition and Conference Opens Today in Shanghai
    For immediate release 1 December, 2015 China Railway + Transit Exhibition and Conference Opens Today in Shanghai Today marks the debut of China Railway + Transit Exhibition and Conference 2015 (CRTEC). The show is jointly organised by UBM Asia and the China Chamber of Commerce for the Import and Export of Machinery and Electronic Products (CCCME). The exhibition will take place at the Shanghai New International Exhibition Centre (SNIEC) in Shanghai, China from 1-3 December, 2015 and is expected to attract manufacturers and buyers from the railway, urban transit and relevant transportation industries. The show is co-located with Marintec China - the largest maritime and shipbuilding event in Asia. Visitors would be able to visit both events on the same trip. The booming railway industry market in China offers huge business opportunities China’s railway industry has developed rapidly since the beginning of the 21st century and has achieved profound success, especially in high-speed railway and urban rail transit. By 2014, China’s railway mileage reached 112,000 kilometres and high-speed operating mileage reached more than 16,000 kilometres. The transportation of 2.357 billion passengers and 3.813 billion tons of freight by railway nationwide ranked first in the world. The quantity of national railway locomotives was 21,100, that of railway trucks was 710,100 and that of the railway passenger trains was 60,600, which includes 1,411 multiple units and 13,696 vehicles. With the massive investment in ordinary and high-speed railways, China will remain the world’s largest railway market in the coming five years.

    2019 4th International Symposium on Management, Economics, E-business and Marketing (ISMEEM 2019) The spatial distribution of bus stations and optimization strategy in the main urban area of Lanzhou Zhijie Chen, Yongping Bai*, Min Zhang College of Geographic and Environmental Science, Northwest Normal University, Lanzhou, Gansu, China *Corresponding author: Yongping Bai Keywords: bus station; spatial distribution; optimization strategy; Lanzhou city Abstract: Based on the POI data and bus route data of bus stations in the main urban area of Lanzhou to study the spatial layout of bus stations macro distribution and internal connections. The results show that: In the spatial pattern of the bus station cluster in the main urban area of lanzhou city, there is a spatial structure of “one main center and two sub-centers”.From the perspective of internal relations, the degree center value of most of the 694 bus stations in the main urban area of lanzhou is greater than the intermediate center value, with the mean values of 370.607874 and 132.401578 respectively. This indicates that most of the bus stations in the main urban area of lanzhou have good direct access ability, but the interconnections between them are poor. By combining the overall urban planning of lanzhou, further optimize the spatial layout of bus stations in the main urban area of lanzhou. 1.
