Abstract

It is found that the random change of traffic flow in the road network will affect the passing efficiency of vehicle in most cases. In order to enhance the capability of cities of coping with sudden events, this paper is intended to introduce the concept of road-unobstructedness to correct the traffic impedance encountered by fire engines. What's more, this study also redefine the fairness and put forward an improve fire station layout model based on the comprehensive consideration of economic, social and environmental factors, to provide a new viable analysis approach for making optimal decision on fire station location based on comprehensive consideration. The results show that the model can improve the efficiency of 25% and reduce the average travel time of fire engines.
