Abstract:Abstract:Research purposes: Cangzhou is an important economic powerhouse of Hebei. With location advantage and the second largest coal port - Huanghua,Cangzliou developed an advanced freight railway system. But in the process of realizing the coordinated development of Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei,the railway network layout structure focused on the freight became a resistance of city orientation. This paper discussed and studied existing weak parts in Cangzhou * s railway network,and proposed rational layout frame by systemic analysis for the city,to make Cangzhou achieve his overall planning as a vital part in Beijing - Tianjin - Hebei urban agglomeration. Research conclusions:(1) The planning goals: in addition to freight railway,high - speed railway between Cangzliou and Beijing and Tianjing will be developed efficiently,setting up a 0. 5 ?1 hour transportation circle to promote the standards and capacity of the railway network to elevate the status of Cangzhou in the regions. (2 ) The planning effect : form a key frame of “two transversal one longitudinal ” including Beijing - Kowloon and Beijing - Shanghai and Shijiazhuang - Cangzhou - Huanghua Port railway passageway,set up inter - city railway between Cangzhou and Beijing or Shijiazhuang,set up inter - city railway between Cangzhou and other important cities in Hebei province, further expand the coverage of freight railway based on Huanghua Port and Bohai development zone. (3) The research can lay a good foundation for the comprehensive transportation planning in Cangzhou and serve as a model for other cities to learn from in the similar planning.
