This　paper　introduces　planning　and　design　of　park-and-ride　(P&R)　facilities　in　Beijing,　China.　The　procedure　to　locate　new　P&R　facilities　contains　two　main　steps.　The　first　is　the　selection　of　P&R　candidates　for　the　rail-transit　network.　These　facilities　must　be　constructed　within　500　meters　of　a　train　station.　The　second　step　is　to　evaluate　new　P&R　facilities　and　determine　specific　locations　for　proposed　P&R　facilities.　Potential　analysis　is　conducted　of　P&R　candidates　to　determine　proper　locations　and　design　profiles.　This　study　also　considers　factors　that　have　a　great　effect　on　P&R　demand,　such　as　population　density,　annual　household　income,　accessibility　of　P&R　facilities,　distance　to　downtown,　and　saved　travel　time.　The　objective　of　this　study　is　to　help　municipal　governments　determine　the　locations　and　sizes　of　P&R　facilities　along　rail　transit　lines　that　would　minimize　auto　travel　and　encourage　use　of　public　transit.　The　Analytic　Hierarchy　Process　(AHP)　and　Expert　Scoring　Method　(ESM)　are　employed　to　determine　the　final　rank　of　P&R　candidates.　©　2012　American　Society　of　Civil　Engineering.
