Research on Over-Track Development Depot Schemes Based on System Capacity Pre-Control

The general layout of rail transit depots should be designed based on planning requirements, site constraints, and track connection conditions. It aims to ensure smooth and efficient train operation and maintenance while considering factors such as over-track property development and land use value. A comparative analysis of multiple schemes is essential. Taking a depot of a specific line in Shanghai’s rail transit system as an example, this paper proposes three layout schemes with varying positions for pre-controlled parking and inspection based on system capacity. A comprehensive comparison is conducted, leading to a recommended scheme with optimization suggestions.
