In the new era, our country’s huge investment in new passenger stations does not aim to be a self-satisfied one-stop service transportation hub, but to act as an urban catalyst to drive the coordinated development of its surrounding urban areas. This requires an organic connection between the passenger station and the urban space. Interaction, the construction of a pedestrian network is a key element that affects the integration of stations and cities. Based on the demand for improving the vitality of the station space in China, this paper analyzes the mutual feedback mechanism of the pedestrian network and the development of the station space through the comparison of the domestic and foreign station area cases. It discusses the three structural modes of the station area pedestrian system of the point block, point axis and point network. The characteristics of the station area, land use, development intensity, functional space, and transportation planning five pedestrian network construction elements are analyzed. On this basis, performance-based design, hierarchical distribution, link formation, resource link, and unified plan five optimization strategies are proposed to promote the construction of the station area pedestrian network, enhance the station area’s vitality, and realize the coordinated development of the station city and the sustainable construction of the passenger station.

As an important place for people evacuation, the use effect of underground transfer space in high-speed railway station will be affected by its own spatial organization characteristics. Beijing-Fuzhou high-speed railway is a part of the Beijing-Hong Kong (Taiwan) channel, one of the "eight verticals". Through field investigation, thirty-eight stations on the Beijing-Fuzhou line were investigated and divided into two types: network format and axis type according to the form of spatial organization. Hefei South Station and Xuzhou East Station are selected as two typical cases. Using the axis method and horizon analysis method of spatial syntax as as specific analysis means, combined with integration, connection value, intelligibility visual integration degree, visual control degree and visual aggregation coefficient. The accessibility, permeability, recognizability, visibility, field of view and limitation of underground transfer space are analyzed. The organizational characteristics of underground transfer space of the Beijing-Fuzhou high-speed railway are summarized, and corresponding optimization strategies are put forward.
