Abstract :
The railway station is an important hub on conection of urban transportation. Message sign plays an important part in the flow and transfer of passengers in the hub. Based on passenger properties, this paper firstly made classification of the transfer message. Then the reasonable quantity of message signs was discussed and the height and spacing models were established for them. Finally, these models were applied to Wuchang railway station. It provides design reference for the layout of transfer message signs in other great stations.
