Abstract

Large-scale communities outside the city are the product of the process of suburbanization. Subject to community facilities, travel of the suburbanites was suppressed. In this paper, taking the large-scale community in Shanghai - Jinhe New Town as an example, two characteristics will be studied: 0.5-hour and 1-hour traffic circle, and crowdedness of subway and taxi for suburbanites. The result reveals: (1) there exists significant differences for taxi traffic circle between the peak and non-peak period; (2) the difference is relatively small for subway because the subway departure times and frequency are relatively fixed; (3) the taxi circle focuses on city periphery, indicating that if suburbanites want to go into the city, they prefer to take the subway; and (4) the subway is very crowded, sometimes even eight person per square meter during the peak period while four person per square meter during the non-peak period.
