Abstract
Transportation industry is the leading capital of social and economic development, which plays an important role in regional economic development. Based on the data of Tibet Autonomous Region in the past 15 years, this paper makes further grey relation analysis and elastic analysis on the basis of analyzing the current situation of its transportation industry and economic development, obtains the conclusion about the development relationship between them. The empirical results show that there is a close relationship between the transportation industry and economic growth in Tibet Autonomous Region, and the development of them is in a state of coordination on the whole. Among them, the promotion effect of freight transport on the economic growth of Tibet is greater than that of passenger transport, and the belt action of economic growth on railway transport is much greater than that on highway transport.
Highlights
As a basic industry to promote economic development, transportation industry plays an increasingly significant role in promoting regional economic development
From the previous development introduction, we can know that the development speed of the transportation industry in Tibet Autonomous Region from 2013 to 2018 was basically equal to the speed of economic growth
In terms of total volume, except for the small elastic coefficient of passenger turnover, other elastic coefficients are all around 1, which shows that the development of transportation industry in Tibet Autonomous Region is basically compatible with economic growth
Summary
As a basic industry to promote economic development, transportation industry plays an increasingly significant role in promoting regional economic development. The analysis of the current situation and relationship between the transportation industry and economic development in Tibet will help to find out the problems existing in the development of the transportation industry in Tibet at the present stage, so that the transportation industry can better play its role in promoting economic development. Yang et al (2005) believed that the construction of Qinghai-Tibet Railway was conducive to resource development, tourism development and industrial structure adjustment in Tibet, which will promote the economic growth of Tibet. Pan (2005) investigated the relationship between the development of transportation and GDP in Tibet and believed that the transportation industry had a great promoting effect on the economic growth, especially with a large correlation coefficient with the secondary and tertiary industries. This paper will start from different indicators to measure the development of transportation industry and analyze its relationship with economic growth
