The Transportation Planning Research On Land Use

With the development of china’s economy, the contradiction between the conventionalland use and transportation planning has been highly increased. Many problems of chaotictraffic causing by unreasonable land use planning have became the most striking socialissue. Traditionally, urban Department for Transportation is only responsible fortransportation planning, while Ministry of Land and Resources is just in charge of urbanland use. But, as a matter of fact, there is an inextricable connection between land use andtransportation planning.In order to make the relation between the two spheres further, from the land useperspective,this paper mainly researches on the impact of urban constructive projects ontransport. Based on the theories, such as Evaluation Threshold, Evaluation Scope etc. ofurban construction projects, this paper uses the classical Four Step Model with the help ofTranscad software to predict the traffic volume of transportation network and other targetsin the future. The paper predicts the traffic volume and saturation level of the transportationnetwork. By comparing changes of these indicators，the paper values the impact of theurban constructive projects on the transportation system, so as to supply the mightyreference for the relevant departments to make a strategic decision.Finally, combining with the project under construction Tianjin Second Children’shospital, this paper have compared the traffic volume before and after the constructiveproject and valued the impact of this project on transportation.
