Investigating the Spatial Reflection of Land Use Syntax in the Transit Network on the Attraction of Vehicle-Based Trips (Range of Study: district seven in City of Qom*)

Today, many researchers talking about relying on private vehicle to carry out intra-city trips as one of the main challenges facing the country's urban system. This way of traveling in cities has caused to be reduced the quality of urban environments day by day. And in the end, cities face with a lot of problems, such as increasing living costs, air pollution, increasing accidents, increasing fossil fuel consumption, and, in a word of decline, living conditions degradation and, consequently, a decline in quality of life.The choice of private vehicle as a means of intra-city trips itself is influenced by various factors such as (economic, physical, cultural factors).One of the physical factor of this article is how to locate land use in the transit network that has been investigated in this research. Due to studies in this area, it is possible to estimate the possible effects of land use deployment on the choice of means of citizen's travel.It will be clear that how to distribute the land use, if necessary, to reduce the car dependency and promote green travel practices such as walking, cycling and using of public transport. Therefore, the district Seven of Qom metropolis has been studied.The research process is descriptive-analytic, and library studies have been carried out using snippets and field studies using traffic impressions. Data analysis was done by using the GIS geographical system software and the depth map. The findings of the research showed a significant correlation between spatial alignment indicators, the degree of user focus and the speed of car-based trips.The findings of the research showed a significant correlation between spatial syntax indicators, the degree of land use focus and the frequency of car-based trips.Accordingly, it is necessary during the studies of the Comprehensive Transport and Traffic Master Plan and the Comprehensive Plan as the main documents of the urban development management to pay special attention to explaining the impact of the factors related to land use on the selection of the means of travel from the point of view of space syntax.
