Abstract

Industrial restructuring and upgrading has been the focus of national industrial policy, accompanied by industrial migration, the state is also a large-scale construction of transport infrastructure, but specifically, what is the relationship between the two, the use of mainland China 31 Autonomous regions and municipalities in 2008-2015, the regional location entropy as the explanatory variables, respectively, from the theoretical and empirical point of view of rail and highway on the impact of manufacturing agglomeration.The results show that the transport infrastructure has a spillover effect on the manufacturing agglomeration, but the impact of the railway is greater than that of the highway; and the eastern part of the transport infrastructure has greater impact than the other regions.
