Abstract:The necessity of the study on the planning of Hutai Road Compound Express Channel is expounded. The project includes the expressways, urban arterial roads and bus rapid transit (BRT). Through the analytic demonstration of expressway scale, laying form and section layout, two overall schemes of "all elevated roads, expressway to expressway" and "local grounding, soft connection" are proposed. These two schemes are compared. The construction necessity of intermediate transport volume, the comparison of its system and the layout of its stops are studied. On this basis, the idea of compound channel is put forward.
