ABSTRACT

In order to explore the development of intermodal transportation in China, this paper analyzes the intermodal transportation efficiency from 2018 to 2020 in 10 provinces and cities of Liaoning, Tianjin, Shandong, Jiangsu, Sichuan, Shanghai, Zhejiang, Fujian, Guangdong, and Guangxi Provinces by using the DEA model. Based on the relevant data in 2018, 2019 and 2020, the pure technical efficiency, scale efficiency and total efficiency of the ports in these provinces and cities are calculated, and it is concluded that China's current intermodal transportation scale efficiency is low, e.g., China's average total efficiency value in 2020 will be 0.277. This paper analyzes the reasons for China's low intermodal transportation scale efficiency, and proposes relevant measures to solve the problem.
