Abstract

In order to solve the problem of measuring the transferred and induced container volume of the new transportation projects, we analyze container demand from a perspective of hinterlands, and divide the advantages of the new transportation projects into the reduction of the transportation costs and time. By applying the rate, we are able to transform the transportation time into a monetary figure, quantifying the cost of time, thereby setting up generalized transportation cost model. We determine the container transferred volume utilizing Attraction-Logit model. We translate the decrease in costs into an increase in foreign trade export value, and leverage the improved multi-factor dynamic generation method to derive the induced container volume. The prediction consequences indicate that by 2050, the container volume is anticipated to arrive at 3967.999 thousand TEUs, of which the transferred container volume will be 3210.685 thousand TEUs, and the induced container volume will arrive to 757.314 thousand TEUs. We find the proportion of transfer traffic and inducement traffic is about 79% and 21%, respectively, and transferred volume dominates container demand. We forecast the container volume to provide effective reference for the future planning of freight transport development in Pinglu Canal.
