Growing urban traffic congestion is one of the major problems of today’s transportation system. Properly understanding the nature of transit travel demand is at the heart of transportation policy and the success of transit systems. Unfortunately, in analyzing transit travel demand and level of transit use, most existing studies have focused on only a few aspects of transit systems and overlooked basic accessibility and transportation equity. This study investigates the determining factors for transit travel demand by bus and subway in Wuhan. This research is primarily concerned with two concepts: accessibility and equity. Although the demand for transit travel in Wuhan is rapidly increasing, the current transportation infrastructure is lacking in the provision of basic accessibility to low-income and suburban households. To meet passenger demand, high public transit accessibility is vital to provide basic accessibility to key locations such as job centers.
