Cover Story: With the accelerating urbanization and steady economic development in China, the urban rail transit (URT) system is becoming increasingly crucial to the sustainable development of cities. Considering the fact that few studies have focused on the coupling coordination between URT and sustainable urban development (SUD), this article constructs a comprehensive evaluation index system from the perspectives of URT and SUD. Then, quantitative analyses of the coupling coordination degree of the two systems by the TOPSIS method and coupling coordination degree model, in addition to the influencing factors by the grey correlation analysis method, are conducted. Finally, decision supports on the scale and timing of URT construction are provided, which are of great significance for achieving sustainable urban development.
