Taiwan High Speed Rail (HSR) system will begin to operate in 2006, thedream of making the western Taiwan into a one-day living area will then cometrue. Based on the experiences of freeway’s influences, HSR might significantlyinfluence regional, as well as local development in Taiwan. Taiwan HSR systemincludes not only travel service, but also the station area development projects(SADP). Therefore, the impact of Taiwan HSR system is resulted from twosources: HSR and SADP. This study focused on the local development impact ofTaiwan HSR system. Simultaneous equation modeling is applied for analyzingthe cause-effect relationships of local development, which is calibrated by thesamples of 323 villages, towns or cities in Taiwan. The calibration data includespopulation, industry, land use and travel demand. Based on the calibratedmodel, the impact of improving accessibility, increasing urban developmentland, and different strategies related with HSR system were analyzed anddiscussed. We concluded as follows: Firstly, the improvement of accessibilitypositively influenced the local development of population and industry. Secondly,the increase of urban development land resulted in more positive influences onthe local development of population and industry than the accessibilityimprovement does. Finally, improving the transportation feeder systems of theHSR stations enhanced local development of population and industry. |
