abstract="In Tokyo, recently, rapid urban developments around railway stations in the city centre have been causing serious overcrowding at the stations. However, rapid urban development around the station brings immediate load on the station, there is almost no research to solve this problem. Therefore, this study tries to study towards solutions for preventing the overcrowding at stations caused by urban development in the city centre. Concretely, (1) it identifies causes of the overcrowding at city central stations in Tokyo. (2) Next, conducts a fact-finding survey of the overcrowding at stations, we suggested the 'maximum discharge flow for a station facility' as how much the station facility can accept in terms of the increase of passengers. (3) Lastly, based on the results of (1) and (2), we suggested what should be improved institutionally to prevent serious overcrowding at stations.<p /> <p>Language: en</p>",
