Abstract

The high efficient speed rail (hereinafter referred to as HSR) system of Korea, which is called Korea Train Expren (RTX), is safer, faster, economical and environmentally than other transportation modes. The HSR is expected to enhance the quality of life in Korea Similar to other countries such as Japan, France, Germany and Spain, which have operating HSR Systems. The Seoul-Busan (so called Gyeong-Bu) high speed rail construction project (412km, 116min.) in Korea is to be opened by phase. The master plan was changed in 1998 to achieve early resolution of the traffic congestion of Seoul-Busan axis as well as the difficult national economic situation. This paper describes the integration of Urban Public Transportation around KTX Seoul Station.
