ABSTRACT

Convenient transportation is usually considered to promote circulation. This paper constructs the framework of "factor flows and market integration" to explore the influence of transportation on market integration. Then this paper reflects market integration influenced by transportation. During the study period, the overall role of road on market integration is more limited to the local, and the spatial spillover effect is not significant. There is spatial aggregation effect in the market segmentation in China, and the local market segmentation is outstanding as a whole. The division of labour, information transmission occur through the actual transportation.
