长江经济带战略背景下长江上游港口群发展

Port Group Development in the Upper Reaches of Yangtze River Under the Strategy of Yangtze River Economic Belt

水运是长江上游省份进出口贸易和地区间物资运输的重要方式。首先,论述了长江上游内河航运地位的变迁和未来发展态势。改革开放以后长江作为东西向物流运输大通道的功能逐渐发挥,未来上游地区的江海联运仍然具有明显优势。其次,探讨了长江上游港口群的发展历史、发展态势及亟须协调的问题。主要港口由单一商贸功能向商贸加生产的综合功能转变,并通过多式联运积极拓展腹地,但港口生产能力过剩,且核心港区功能还有待加强。最后,对长江经济带战略背景下长江上游内河航运和港口群的发展提出建议,指出要加快形成港口群合力,建设重庆长江上游航运中心,完善核心港区功能。

In-land water transportation is the major mode of import-export trade and inter region freight transportation in those provinces locating in the upper reaches of Yangtze River in China.This paper firstly summarizes the evolution and development trends of in-land river shipping of the upper reaches of Yangtze River.Under the Reform and Opening-up policies,Yangtze River has been gradually turning to be a large channel of logistics transportation serving the exchange from East to West,while the river-and-sea coordinated transportation enjoys the significant advantages in long distance logistics transportation along the Yangtze River corridor.By reviewing the development history and critical issues of developing the port group in the upper reaches of Yangtze River,the paper indicates that the main duties of major ports have shifted from a single commercial mode to multi-function mode in which transportation is able to combine with industry for extending the services to the hinterland.However,the problem of excess capacity and the development of core ports are still in concern.Finally,the paper provides suggestions for better developing port group in the upper reaches of Yangtze River under the strategy of the Yangtze River Economic Belt,including strengthening inter-ports cooperation,building Chongqing shipping center of the upper reaches of Yangtze River,and improving the core functionality of key port areas.
