Characteristic analysis of the Qingdao-Huangdao bus network system

Abstract

Since the successful opening of the first subsea tunnel in Qingdao city, the situation of "lack of communication between Qingdao and Huangdao" has been effectively resolved. The research proposes a multi-perspective analysis method based on the micro level (ML_MPA), which analyzes the characteristics of the Qingdao-Huangdao bus network system using complex networks. Based on the bus data, we construct the bus station network model and bus line network model between the urban area (Shibei District and Shinan District) and Huangdao District, and comprehensively analyze the overall characteristics of the bus system. The results show that the bus station network has a scale-free characteristic and the bus line network has a small-world characteristic. Combined with the analysis results, it is found that the station distribution of the Qingdao-Huangdao bus system is loose, but the line planning is reasonable. However, there is still the inconvenience of residents taking the bus. The research can provide a theoretical basis for the management of the Qingdao-Huangdao bus network system.
