Abstract
Over-urbanization has contributed to the increase in traffic problems. This makes the need for effective road planning and designmore important than ever. I have been able to learn how to build a new road, and how to use it. However, in spite of the importanceof good road planning, there are no systematic standards or methods for calculating traffic volume on railroad routes. Therefore, inthis study, to strengthen the competitiveness of railroads, the concept of line capacity is introduced to railroads, and a clear standardand method for calculating railroad line capacity are presented. Based on the results, the line capacity of main railway lines fordomestic railways was calculated. By applying the method of calculating the line capacity presented in this study, the capacity ofexisting railway lines and newly expanded routes can be calculated. It is expected that our findings will be able to provide systematicstandards that can be applied to yield a more effective investment and design planning stage; the findings will also help improve theefficiency of railroad operation.
