In order to meet the cargo demands of Ro-Ro and Drayage transportation in Liaoning, Shandong and their surrounding areas, this paper plans a Ro-Ro and Drayage transportation corridor between Shandong and Liaoning. Combining the factors that affect the planning of transportation corridor, this paper firstly uses the Fuzzy C-means Clustering method that is based on the objective function. Secondly, this paper establishes a model of transportation corridor planning and analyzes the fuzzy clustering of the ports and their hinterland. Finally, the paper concludes that the Weifang and Yingkou ports are suitable for the Ro-Ro and drayage transportation of cargos in Bohai Bay. Based on the result of clustering, the corridors between Shandong and Liaoning are constructed, which can provide a reference for the planning and construction of the Ro-Ro and Drayage transportation corridors.
