Research On Effects Of Nanning-Guangzhou Railway On Inter-City Passenger Structure

As a sustainable mode of transportation, high-speed railway has been more and more attention, and become an important trend development in world's railway. Recent years, the construction of high-speed railway is rapid growth. Especially in China, high-speed railway is developing very fast, attracted other country's attention.For areas where first build a high-speed railway, the construction of high-speed railway will have a profound impact, included the impact of socio-economic of the areas along the railway, and the other impact is as the high-speed railway set into operation, the region's original passenger structure will be changed.Based on the Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway, which was started construction at Nov.9,2008 and expected to set into operation in 2012, and investigate and collect the data of the railway's along major cities' socio-economic situation, facilities of transport and the passenger structure, then analysis. Research on the effects of socio-economic of the major cities along the Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway, and the effects on the inter-city passenger structure.Study suggests that the construction of the Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway will enhance the transport location advantages of the cities along, and promote the resources complementary advantages and the development of economic interaction of the cities along. But we should notice that the construction of the Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway would lead a combined effect. In the passenger structure, it will effectively promote the tourism development along, and improve the inter-regional business contacts and transfer passengers from other modes of transport. The Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway will play an important role in the optimization of the transportation corridor's passenger structure.In the final, in order to achieve the optimal allocation of the inter-city passenger structure of the cities along, we make strategy proposals to further improve the service of the integrated transportation network, as the construction of the Nanning-Guangzhou high-speed railway is an opportunity.
