Abstract
Considering the association between the airport and the urban transportation system, the airport ground access plays a significant role in fully achieving the function of the airport, and exerts an important influence on airport capacity and efficiency. Based on the field investigation and questionnaire of Pudong International Airport, the analysis of the service characteristics of various ground access modes was conducted with the full consideration of several factors including travel time, travel time composition and cost. In addition, total travel costs of different transport modes were quantitatively calculated. The result shows that the higher the total travel cost, the lower the sharing ratio, in terms of public transport. Finally, the current ground access structure and its forming reasons were summarized by analyzing comprehensive influence caused by various factors. The result might provide theoretical guidance and engineering reference for the landside traffic improvement of the current airports and the design of new airports.
