Transportation has always played a pivotal role in economic development and is an important factor driving the economy along the route. This paper actually calculates and analyzes the economic benefits brought by the opening of high-speed rail to Huangshi and Jiujiang. Using the comparison analysis method, the data predicted by the model when the high-speed rail is not opened and the actual data are compared. The results show that the opening of the high-speed railway has a certain promotion impact on the economic development of Huangshi and Jiujiang. However, the research results also show that its impact on the urbanization index is not significant, which is not consistent with the urbanization impact of high-speed railway.
