Spatiotemporal Heterogeneity of Metro Ridership under Major Pandemic Conditions
Based on the GTWR model, factors affecting spatiotemporal characteristics of ridership in metro stations are analyzed. The temporal distance is converted into additional spatial proportional distance with a spatiotemporal proportional factor. Taking Xi’an Metro as an example, the building area of work, medical, and residential land is selected to influence the built environment, while betweenness centrality evaluates the station’s importance. The results show that the pandemic reduces the overall ridership, and all the factors had a greater impact during the peak hours. The ridership of working and residential land decreased most in February 2020, whose attraction has decreased to nearly 1/30. The large medical institutions around attracted 1/3 more passengers than other stations. The attraction of working land and BC was concentrated within the second ring road and the residential land in the southern city. In conclusion, early access to it can be helpful for pandemic prevention and control.
