Evaluation of Public Welfare Level of Urban Rail Transit considering Operation Management by Ran Meng, Baohua Mao, Qi Xu, Yang Yang

“…To verify the effectiveness of the proposed method, urban rail transit systems in 16 Chinese cities are studied as a case study. The results show that (1) the three indicators of passenger travel cost (25.69%), the increase in housing prices around urban rail transit(10.74%), and operating cost ratio(9.95%) are more likely to affect the evaluation of public welfare level of urban rail transit. (2) the level of public welfare in different cities is not balanced. …”
