The layout of urban passenger intermodal transfer points (UPITP) is very important in the aspects of guiding transit-oriented development (TOD), improving passenger traffic efficiencies and promoting establishment of integrated urban passenger systems. The UPITP planning is generally made on the basis of traffic network. It is often ignored that the transfer points are critical points of the traffic networks and they are in a center position on integrating various levels and functions of urban passenger traffic systems. The purpose of this research was to develop the layout planning methods for multi-center cities by analyzing the characteristics of urban land use and passenger demand distribution. A two-step layout planning method for the UPITP is brought up. The first step is macroscopic layout in which the sites are selected by classified layout methods and integrating macroscopic layout of transfer points with land use of multi-center cities. The second step is microcosmic location. Based on the objective of reducing the walking time from Origin or Destination to the transfer points and improving accessibility of the transfer points, a location programming model is brought up to decide the favorable positions for the UPITP, which is tightly consistent with intensive land uses for commerce, office and residence and is combined with traffic passenger demand corridors.
