Having reviewed the types of outburst mass passenger flow and their impacts on the operation of the urban rail transit, this paper expounds the main factors influencing passenger evacuation. Taking for example the Dongsishitiao Station in Beijing Subway Line 2, we have focused on the causes and the characteristics of the stream and volume of the outburst mass passenger flow, and pointed out the structural defects of the station as well. Based on the information of the facility and the structure of the station, together with the characteristics of the outburst mass passenger flow, we introduce some multi-layer measures to limit the passenger flow and the corresponding auxiliary measures to evacuate the crowd to provide the gauge in the event of large-scale activities to ensure safety.
