摘要
As the organization of container shipping in the Yangtze River does not comply with the principle that "large ship with long line, small with short line",Hub-and-Spoke network is applied to this area to centralize traffic flow and achieve economies of scale, with the axis between Wuhan Yangluo Port and Shanghai Yangshan Port. Compared with traditional mode of transport, the new mode reduce the transport costs and fuel consumption by 15.3% and 20.1% respectively. Further, the carbon emissions are cut down by 318 thousand tons. It presents excellent economic and social benefits.
