Taking the advantage of convenience and high efficiency, the subway system has been a favorite of passengers. Providing better services to minimize the travel time for the passengers is of particular importance. Metro train’s headway and running time have determined that the most important factor affecting the travel time is the passengers’ walking time. In order to study the relationship between those factors, a field study was conducted on Line 1 of Beijing subway system. The investigated facilities include the passageway, platform, escalators, and stairs. For each walking facility, a function of travel time and distance was calculated and the factors that affected the walking time were analyzed.
