Abstract

The Yangtze River Delta region is one of the regions with the highest economic development dynamics in China, and the importance of its transportation hub status is self-evident. This paper selects the indicator of traffic accessibility and adopts the weighted time cost method to analyze the traffic accessibility and equilibrium of major cities in the Yangtze River Delta region, and draws the following conclusions: (1) the improvement of traffic accessibility can drive the economic development of the city (2) the highway accessibility of cities in the Yangtze River Delta is high, which proves that the city roads in the region are well paved and the road travel is convenient; (3) the railroad accessibility of the Yangtze River Delta city cluster is low, so the railway paving needs to be accelerated in the regional city development planning, and thus the shortage of road travel needs to be completed. accessibility is low, so in the regional urban development planning, railroad paving needs to accelerate the pace, and then make up for the shortcomings.
