Abstract

In this research, we consider a line section that gives priority to resuming railway operation, in order to resolve early disappearance of those who are unable to return home in the event of a disaster. Using the Dynamic Hyperpath model, real traffic is reproduced based on congestion of stations at the time of disaster, and simulation is performed.As a result of the analysis, it was shown that large congestion occurred at the final transfer station from within the Yamanote Line. For this reason, in order to avoid the occurrence of large congestion, we think that it is necessary to restore from the city line extending from the city center to the suburbs instead of resuming operation from the city center line.
