Abstract

In the context of the deep promotion of the Healthy China strategy, hospital accessibility has become an important indicator for measuring the level of urban public services. This study evaluates the accessibility of hospitals under multi-transportation modes with the help of kernel density analysis, accessibility analysis based on OD cost matrix and other methods, taking Lanzhou city centre as a case study. It is found that the medical resources in Lanzhou city centre show a circle gradient decreasing pattern with Chengguan District as the core, with a high concentration of medical resources in Chengguan District and a scarcity of resources in Xigu District and other marginal areas. Under the multi-modal transport, the driving travelling shows the characteristic of ‘strong core-weak edge’, with significant advantages in the accessibility of the core area; cycling has certain advantages in the short distance; walking accessibility is the lowest in the whole, covering only a very small area.
