Urban rail transit is an important part of public transport. With the acceleration of urbanization, the continuously increase of urban population and scale, coupled with the diversity of individual travel modes, making the traditional transport system can not meet the urban resident's demand, at the same time it affects the healthy development of the city, resulting in many serious problem, such as traffic congestion, unreasonable spatial layout, serious environmental pollution, resource shortages and so on. Therefore, many countries resort to develop urban rail transit to solve these problems. Urban rail transit mainly includes subway, light rail, magnetic levitation trains and intercity rail and so on. They all have the advantages of transport speed, large volume, time standards, conservation of land features, becoming an important part of the three-dimensional traffic system for modern city.Shijiazhuang is a train pull's young city, it is the political and economic center of Hebei Province. It has a great development potential, as it is now in a rapid development period. The traditional mode of transportation contributes a lot on the rise and development of Shijiazhuang, but long-established pattern of transport modes and urban development has also become a develop barrier for its sustainable development.There are also many problems n the city. Because rail transit optimizes on urban transportation structure and the spatial structure of the city and can bring more convenience to the public, so that it become the inevitable choice to solve traffic problems in Shijiazhuang city.Shijiazhuang's available economic, demographic and other conditions have met the requirements of the national construction of urban rail transportation. Thanks to the continuous efforts, finally the planning of rail transit get the approval from the state authorities concerned in 2009 , and it will be realized in the next few years.The development of urban rail transit must highlight the cultural characteristics of shijiazhuang,because rail transport not only plays a role of transporting the residents, it is a window of city construction; must coordinate with the traditional traffic systems, the essence of the development of rail transportation is to make up the deficiencies of traditional modes of transportation. Therefore, only the effective combination of traditional and modern can truly improve the quality of urban transport; must take a variety of channels to broaden the project's investment and financing patterns, this will not only help reduce the burden on local governments, but also conducive to long-term operation of rail transportation.
