Abstract

This paper focuses on the economic connection between transportation and regional economic development in the east, central and west of Inner Mongolia. By constructing the econometric model with panel data from 2007 to 2017 in 12 cities of Inner Mongolia, the interactive evolutionary relationship is empirically tested. The conclusion is as follows: transportation plays an overall role in promoting the regional economic development of Inner Mongolia. In central Mongolia, the freight transportation plays a significant role in boosting regional economy. As for the eastern Mongolia, the contribution of passenger transportation to the economy is the most obvious. The economy of western region has been relatively backward and the current transportation infrastructure is not large enough to promote economic production. Based on this, the paper puts forward the following Suggestions: Inner Mongolia should speed up the construction of transportation network, so as to highlight its role as a hub. At the same time, achieve efficient use of transportation infrastructure and promote the sharing of resources. Finally, promote the integration of transportation and other emerging industries.
