Research On The Coupling And Coordinated Development And Influencing Factors Of Road Network And Tourism Industry In Gansu Province

With the implementation of the new development concept and the construction of the new development pattern,the integrated development of transportation and tourism is an effective way to achieve high-quality economic development.The mutual correlation between the road network and the tourism industry has gradually deepened,and the deep integration of the two systems has become the only way to develop new forms of transportation and tourism integration.The government and theoretical circles have paid high attention to this issue,In 2017,six departments including the Ministry of Transport and the former National Tourism Administration jointly officially proposed the development concept of "traffic tourism integration";In 2019,the State Council proposed the goal of deepening the integrated development of transportation and tourism;In2021,specific measures for the development of transportation and tourism will be further proposed to form a postive interactive situation of transportation driving tourism and tourism promoting transportation,the level and quality of highway network and tourism development depend on the breadth and depth of integration with transportation and tourism.Research on such issues has significant theoretical and practical significance.Gansu Province is located in the northwest region,with rich tourism resources and multiple spots and long lines.The road network plays an important role in the development of tourism resources.With the development of "expressway derivative economy",Gansu Province will create four major transportation and tourism upgrading projects: "access road","station change","have a pleasant outing" and "intelligent connection" to further promote the coupling and coordinated development of the road network and the tourism industry.Therefore,this article takes Gansu Province as the research object and studies the coupling and coordinated development of road network and tourism industry based on the background of transportation and tourism integration.Using the coupling and coordination model,gray correlation model,and geographic detector model,and combining the specific situation of Gansu Province construct development indicators of road network and tourism industry,and brings relevant data in Gansu Province from 2011 to 2021 into the evaluation model to analyze the development level of rod network and tourism industry Coupling coordination and its influencing factors.The results show that the development and changes of the road network and tourism industry in 14 cities(prefectures)in Gansu Province between2011 and 2021 are relatively gentle and have significant spatial differences,and there is considerable development space for the overall road network and tourism industry;From the perspective of coupling coordination degree,from 2011 to 2021,the coupling and coordinated development of the road network and tourism industry in 14 cities(prefectures)in Gansu Province was relatively stable and the spatial evolution showed a positive trend.The coupling coordination level showed a spatial distribution pattern of "Lowering from the provincial capital Lanzhou City to the surrounding areas",with significant spatial differences;Analyzing the influencing factors of coupling and coordination from the internal and external aspects of the system,it is found that the average gray correlation degree of the location advantage,node accessibility,and tourism industry market size within the system reaches above 0.8,which is highly correlated with the coupling coordination degree.The interaction of factors such as transportation tools,information technology level,and natural environment outside the system promotes the coupling and coordinated development of the road network and tourism industry.Based on the empirical analysis results,policy recommendations are proposed for different coupling and coordination regions.
