abstract: 'High speed rail (HSR) networks have been an essential catalyst in
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
stimulating and balancing regional economic growth that ultimately
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
benefits the society as a whole. Previous studies have revealed that HSR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
services sustainably yield superior social values for people, especially
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
for adults and those of working age. This has become an advantage of HSR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
networks over other forms of public transportation. The Shinkansen
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
network in Japan is one of most successful HSR models. Its services
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
bring significant social advantages to the communities it serves, such
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
as shorter travel times and increased job opportunities. Nevertheless,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
the societal impact of HSR networks depends on many factors, and the
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
benefits of HSR could also be overrated. The goal of this research is to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
measure the socioeconomic impacts of HSR on people of all genders and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
age groups. The outcomes could lead to more suitable development of HSR
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
projects and policies. This study investigates data sets for Japanese
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
social factors over 55 years in order to determine the impacts of HSR.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The assessment model has been established using Python. It applies
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Pearson''s correlation (PCC) technique as its main methodology. This
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
study broadly assesses social impacts on population dynamics, education,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
age dependency, job opportunities, and mortality rate using an
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
unparalleled dataset spanning 55 years of social factors. The results
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
exhibit that younger generations have the most benefits in terms of
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
equal educational accessibility. However, the growth of the HSR network
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
does not influence an increase in the employment rate or labour force
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
numbers, resulting in little benefit to the workforce.'
