摘要

In the era of rapid development of big data, in order to give full play to the efficiency of transportation infrastructure, ensure the safety of residents, and strive to improve the operation efficiency and management level of transportation system, China has implemented intelligent transportation in major cities in recent years. Intelligent transportation mode can make the transportation system have the ability of perception, prediction, analysis, control and so on. Its implementation greatly improves the overall operation efficiency and level of urban transportation system. In this context, customized shuttle bus came into being. The customized shuttle bus generally serves from the community to the unit, from the unit to the community, providing morning and evening rush hour pick-up service for medium and long-distance commuters. As an innovative transportation service between traditional public transportation and private transportation, customized shuttle bus can not only make up for the inconvenience brought to commuters by existing means of transportation, but also solve the problem of ＂commuting difficulty＂ in the city. Moreover, the customized shuttle bus adopts energy-saving and environmental protection electric vehicles, aiming to advocate green travel, energy conservation and emission reduction, and has social public services The nature of business. Based on the above two aspects, the customized shuttle bus has been rapidly promoted in many cities. However, the customized shuttle bus is still in the initial stage of development, and the development trend in major cities is not stable. There are still many problems to be solved, which directly or indirectly affect the loyalty of medium and long-distance commuters to choose customized buses as the primary means of transportation. Among them, the rationality of the layout of customized bus stops greatly affects the travel mode choice of this special group. In general, considering that these special groups often have higher requirements on convenience and travel time efficiency in the choice of transportation tools, this paper considers it necessary to set up a set of customized bus station selection criteria, so that the selected stations can better meet the convenience and travel time efficiency of such groups On the requirements to improve the attraction of customized shuttle bus, so that it can better play its advantages.
