摘要

With the development of integration of urban and rural public transit, urban bus transportation is playing an increasing role in urban economy. To plan the public transit network at the preliminary stage is of great significance to stimulate urban regional economy and improve the urbanization level. In this article, how to use TransCAD to collect and establish urban public transit network data is first analyzed and an arrangement method for urban public transit network--hub determining, network forming, points locating-is proposed based on these data. Meanwhile, its operational process is given with TransCAD. At the end, this method is proved to be practicable and effective with an example of urban planning in Panyu district, Guangdong province.
