Urbanization is a necessary step in the transformation of Chinese society, and alsomade a great contribution to China’s economy to increase, but urbanization has also hadmany negative impacts. On one hand, the disordered urban sprawl reduces the arableland and also leads to inefficient urban land use. The other hand, urban space usepatterns tends to be the Urban Fragmentation. Urban planning which focus on the actualuse of building, neglects the relationship between the buildings and transportationsystem planning.In this background, this paper draws on the intensive use of land theory, land renttheory, transportation hubs and urban areas mutual relations theory, and then use themethod of qualitative analysis from a macro point of view to investigate urban land useand transportation system planning mechanism of action, combined with quantitativeanalysis of empirical analysis from a microscopic point of view.Most of the construction land in urbanization came from agricultural land orsuburban districts. However, it is not yet well understood what drives the change of landuse. Our study analyses the influence of proximity to G210road exits on urban growth.The analysis is based on two data collection campaigns from the Land Use Statisticswith a time difference of19years. Proximity is measured as the distance from a roadexit, which we related to changes in the entire urban areas and their subclasses‘Building areas’,‘commercial area’,‘Industrial areas’ and ‘Transportation areas’. Inlinear regression, most of the urban land-use categories show a significant distance trendwithin the two study parts, except the ‘Building area’. We thus can ascertain that adeclining trend exists with the distance from G210road exits for the growth rates of the‘entire urban areas’ and the ‘Commercial area’, the ‘Industry area’ and the‘Transportation area’.Further, variance partitioning revealed the exclusive explanatory power of distancefrom a motorway exit by partialling out two further potential predictors, the previousurban area and the local relief. The growth of the industrial area in the5th to the10thexits in general show such a dependency on the distance from the G210road exit whichmeans industrial land in newly developing area has the causal relationship with distance.Likewise, this was found for entire urban areas in the1th to4th exits. In geography map,we can see that the1th to4th exits has more relief areas and the traditional area has more advantages in infrastructure for constructing. There, we can assume a causalrelationship between proximity to motorway exits and urban growth.The paper concludes with suggestions to promote the coordinated development oftransport system planning and urban spatial expansion. At the planning stage, use theguiding function of traffic on urban development to implement the TOD model of urbanconstruction; to analysis the impact of construction projects on the surrounding regionalroad network in the city or region which has been built, and to configure the trafficimprovement measures; the establishment of the intensive use of land evaluation system;improve the transportation planning system; to establish contacts of rail transportationand land development by way of joint development and property tax feeding. In themechanism of innovation, establish the joint offices for the joint development of railtransportation and land. Finally, combined with the special topography in chongqing,and puts forward the targeted solution to the coordinated development of transportationsystem and the urban space.
