| To speed up the development of Yangtze River container transport is an important act, carrying out the strategic deployment put forward by the Central, which drive the economic development along Yangtze River, while concentrating on the construction of Shanghai International Shipping Center. The vast areas along the Yangtze River are the uppermost economic hinterland of Shanghai International Shipping Center, enjoying a large volume of space to develop container transport. Effective measures should be taken to expedite the development of the Yangtze River container transport and realize the benign interaction with Shanghai International Shipping Center. Proceeding from the construction of Shanghai International Shipping Center, it is necessary to make better use of Yangtze River which is hailed "Prime Channel", to promote the linkage development of the Yangtze valley, and to research the multimodal combined transport by river and sea model that Yangshan deepwater port serving the Yangtze valley. After being on stream, Yangshan port will cry for researching and developing the system of the multimodal combined transport by river and sea. Then, it is necessary to create a brand-new set of the multimodal combined transport by river and sea model from Yangtze River to Yangshan port, perform its function to serve foreign trade along the Yangtze River, exploit supply of commodities, consequently centralizing them to Yangshan port.The first chapter mainly analyzes characters of container transport market along the Yangtze valley. The second one mainly studies on the container generating mechanism, prediction method and the factors influencing container generating volume. The third chapter concretely analyzes factors to container generating volume of every province respectively. Especially, I exert composition-data prediction method to forecast industrial structure. The forth chapter forecasts the container generating volume of every province along the Yangtze River. The fifth chapter forecasts and analyzes the route of shipping out all the commodities along the Yangtze River. At last I put forward several opinions and countermeasures to the development of the Yangtze River container transport. |
