High-speed rail (HSR) construction is rapidly advancing in China to improve rail competitiveness in the passenger market and facilitate rapid contact between different areas of China. In order to ensure the progress of HSR construction in a relatively short time-frame, and to reduce the property right-of-way cost related with removal of housing or industry, most HSR stations have been placed in suburban areas, far away from city centers. However, the city center remains the main origin and ultimate destination of most HSR passengers. The practice of establishing large-scale HSR stations in the suburbs is not conducive to travel efficiency even up to 500 km, especially for passengers from city centers where there is great potential for people to travel by HSR for business. It is suggested that instead of constructing one costly, huge, high-speed station in the suburban areas of mega cities, building multiple stations close to city centers will greatly reduce the connecting time to high-speed train stations, and hence greatly improve the travel efficiency of high-speed rail.
