This paper expounds the influence of transport infrastructure on environment as spatial agglomerative, economic growth, innovation and technology diffusion effects. Within the STIRPAT model, we use a spatial Durbin model to estimate the impact of transport infrastructure on the environment in 281 Chinese cities during 2003-2013. The results show that transport infrastructure, technical progress, and energy intensity have negative direct effects on urban environment. Additionally, we find an inverted U-shaped curve relationship between GDP per capita and urban environment. As spatial effect, transport infrastructure has negative impacts, while technical progress has a positive effect.
