Abstract
Based on the traffic impact assessment of construction project, the thesis applied random queuing theory to determine the number of parking spaces in a taxi station. The study calculated the changes of some operational index in queuing system, such as the probability of passengers taking a taxi without waiting, the average waiting time of taxi drivers and taxi leave rates based on the change of taxi arrival rates. Through case analysis, queuing theory was proved to be an effective method in determining the number of parking spaces in a taxi station.
