Taxicab is an important mode in urban transportation system, while the role of taxicabs, especially
the relationship with metro system has not been fully studied. This study aims at exploring the factors influencing
the role played by taxicabs in Shanghai, China. Firstly, taxi trips are categorized into three types, namely metroreplaceable
(MR), metro-extending (ME) and metro-supplement (MS) ones. Then, the tendency of travelers
towards taxi or metro at a specific metro station is proposed and calculated on the basis of MR taxi trips and
metro trips. Factors influencing the tendency are investigated through semi-parametric regression models, with
the results indicating that the most significant factors and the influencing radii during the peak and off-peak hours
are different. Some built environment factors, such as the number of hospitals and government agencies, have
significant positive relationship with the tendency in the time periods. Furthermore, land use related factors, such
as the increase of forestry and commercial land, generally promote taxi-hiring in the off-peak hours, while they
have a negative impact during the peak hours. Findings of this study can assist governments and policy makers
to understand the impact of built environment and land use on trip patterns, and thus may contribute to more
reasonable policies and optimized urban planning, which may promote modal switch from taxi to subway.
