Abstract: With the development of metro systems, the problem of unbalanced ridership into and out of the stations, caused by the singleness of station area development, has become increasingly prominent. Research on land use optimization in metro station areas based on a two-way balance of ridership is proposed. First, the stepwise regression analysis method was used to build a relationship model between ridership and the land use index under the guidance of the two-way balance of ridership. Second, the range was optimized by calculating the land use factors of the metro station area. Finally, the land use of the metro station area was optimized from the perspectives of development intensity and land usage. Taking metro stations in Xi’an as an example, the results show that the land use characteristics of metro station areas are quite different. Under the guidance of the two-way balance of ridership, the current land use values of Daminggongxi Station, Nanshaomen Station, and Tiyuchang Station exceed the optimal value range and can be reduced by more than 2.78%. The current land use values of Chaoyangmen Station, Longshouyuan Station, and Weiyijie Station are within the optimized range. The land use values of Kaiyuanmen Station, Banpo Station, and Fengchengwulu Station are below the optimized range and could be increased by more than 13.7%. In addition, optimizing the development intensity or adjusting the land type is further proposed to ensure that the land use factors of station areas are within the calculated optimal value range. The results provide a reference for the optimization of land use in the Xi’an metro station area.
