Comparative Study on Characteristics of Urban Road Network in Station Catchment Area between China and Other Countries for Station-City Integration by Yi-Zheng Dai, Chen-Yang Zhang

“…Except for that of the Honkong West Kowloon Station, the values for the Shapingba Station, Shanghai Hongqiao Station, and Hangzhou West Station are lower than this range. (3) Developing small-scale blocks by gridding has an optimal effect on station catchment areas within the side-length range of 47.1–97.5 m. (4) The current situation of the entire urban road network and the specifications for the design codes of the road network exhibit a certain correlation with the road network characteristics of the station catchment areas.…”
