“…Jiang Y., Xiao, X., Li, X., Ge, G. in their work show the impact of high-speed rail on the economy and the social sphere and conclude that these areas will be characterized by more rapid economic development when high-speed railways are developed [3]. Lin, S., Dhakal, P.R., and Wu, Z. hold the same opinion in their works, noting at the same time that high-speed rail helps to eliminate the "economic gap" between cities [4]. This opinion is also supported by the works of Xuehui Yang, Shanlang Lin, Jiaping Zhang and Minghua He, as well as He, D., Chen, Z., Zhou, J., Yang, T., Lu, L [5,7].…”

Current problems in developing the new silk road from China to Europe

et al. 2022

The rapid development of China dates back to the twentieth century. From an economically underdeveloped country, China has become one of the economic leaders of the world, a major exporter of goods around the world. In the twenties of the twenty-first century, it has in its hands a resource that no other country can boast of. One of China’s great boasts is its extensive network of high-speed railway lines (HSR). The length of China’s HSR surpasses all existing HSRs in the world. In 2012, the country proposed a lucrative project: building a new HSR network across Eurasia to link a number of countries. And while some work is currently underway, there is still no clear plan. The project seems promising not only for China, but also for the other participating countries; it would develop the regions and the economy as a whole and anchor the countries on the world stage in terms of freight transport. But in the ten years of the project’s existence, no clear implementation has come to fruition. It is necessary to find out what is stalling the project and find solutions to existing problems. Or, on the contrary, to finally recognize that the project is considered unprofitable for a number of countries. It is known that part of the territory of Russia, a country that has not yet given a clear answer to this project, will be the largest section of this road, which means it is worth digging deeper into the problem of this project in Russia as well.

“…According to Lin et al [29] there is a significant correlation between employment, fixed asset investment, average wage, and higher education institutions and regional economic growth in China. In contrast to employment, fixed asset investments, and average salary rates, higher education institutions have a negative impact on regional economic growth.…”

The development of railways brings many positive externalities, such as the expansion of built environment, the growth of feeder roads, the rise of passenger mobility, and the creation of economic opportunities for locals. In the meantime, the railway transport system exerts some negative externalities on environmental sustainability, which intensifies climate change. This paper assesses the negative externalities of railway transport through the changing dynamics of the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) and fractional vegetation cover (FVC). The spatial regression model was calibrated to understand the degree of these externalities. In addition, a prediction model was constructed based on machine learning techniques like cellular automata and Markov chain. The study reveals that the development of railway stations in Tripura, India has significant negative externalities on the environment.

“…In [8] the author points out the outrunning importance of subways in modern cities of the 21st century. In [9,11] it is noted that railway systems are developing as an efficient mode of transport and also play an important role in the transport system. A study [12] points out the fact that rail transport can be called the "Transport of the Future".…”

“…In the article "The impact of high-speed railway on China's regional economic growth based on the perspective of regional heterogeneity of quality of place", Lin S., Dhakal P. R. and Wu Z. stated, "The development of high-speed railways has dramatically improved the connectivity between regions and promoted the flow of factors between regions. With the rapid development of global passenger high-speed rail technology, it plays an essential role in the transportation system" [11].…”

China’s public transport in its present and future

2022

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

The People’s Republic of China is the third largest country in the world in terms of territory, behind Russia and Canada, and the first in terms of population. China is a dynamically developing country, and its economy is growing at an annual rate. Public transport is crucial to the development of China’s economy, and especially railways. It is noted that the railways in China are one of the main components of the country’s economy. Statistical data on the public transport system in China are analyzed in this article. It considers types of public transport and reveals their crucial role in the economic and social life of the country. It analyses the dynamics of population growth in the country and development needs of passenger transport. The ways and means of modernizing existing transport structures and the rate of construction of new ones are considered. A comparative study of the length and density of roads and railways of two countries is made, the Russian Federation and China. The prospects for the development of public transport in the PRC are considered, and the main aspects of the government’s plans up to 2035, including the introduction of the latest technical and logistical developments in the field of public transport, are studied.
