Research on the Development Stages of Integration of Urban and Rural Road Passenger Transportation

After years of urban and rural road passenger transportation development, researchers recognize the importance of integrated development and gain plenty from construction experiences. Taking into account the development laws and environment requests, this study proposes a development stage division method which considers county regions as planning units. The method divides development stages about the integration of urban and rural road passenger transportation reasonably, and helps different regions select development modes suitable to their development environment and levels. Through stage division, the integration of urban and rural road passenger transportation is further promoted and service equalization is further improved.
