description With the advancement of country’s “the Belt and Road” strategy, each port is actively formulating development strategies to help implement the strategy. The port inland collection and distribution network is an important guarantee for the development of the port, and it is a key component to promote the connection between the port and the inland hinterland. It has an important role in expanding the scale of the port and improving the overall competitiveness of the port. Aiming at the current imbalance of the collection and distribution methods and the imperfect collection and distribution networks in most ports, this paper establishes an optimal model of collection and distribution network costs and quantitatively optimizes the collection and distribution network corridors. The Tianjin Port is selected as a case study object. And the MATLAB software is used to solve the analysis. The conclusion is that Tianjin Port could alleviate the pressure of the collection and distribution network by increasing the density of container trains with the hinterland cities, which verified the validity of the model.
