道路基础设施是否促进出口，在以往的研究中一直是一个备受关注的问题。本文利用2003 - 2013年的两个数据源，对公路投资与出口之间的关系进行了面板数据分析。结果表明，公路投资对出口贸易具有显著的制约作用。进一步的检验表明，道路基础设施建设有利于服务业的发展：1）吸引更多的私人资本投资于服务业，而不是制造业; 2）减少贸易部门的就业人数。制造业受到限制。当进行集合检验时，结果是稳健的。
Whether road infrastructure promotes export is still a concerned issue debated in the previous studies. In this paper, we conduct a panel data using two data sources from year 2003 to 2013, examining the relationship between road investment and export. The primary results show that road investment significantly restricts local export. A further test indicates that the road infrastructure benefits service sector, 1) abstract more private capital investment on service sector than manufacturing sector, 2) reduce the employee of tradable sector. Then manufacturing sector was constrained. The results are robust when a set test is carried out.
