The evaluation of transportation accessibility is of significant importance to the research of regional transportation systems and economical structures. This paper, measures one of the most developed regions in China with a heavily-loaded traffic network, the Yangtze River Delta. Based on the weighted mean travel time and gravity model, this paper discusses respectively the accessibility of railway transport network and highway transport network. It then evaluates the surface transportation accessibility as a whole. To the end, this paper analyses the potential effects of Yangtze River Delta's transportation planning.
