Abstract

This article analyzed economic effects of changes in spatial accessibility on regional touruism expenditure structure resulting from highway investments on Gangwon province, Korea. The Seemingly Unrelated Regress(SUR) model is applied to analyze the structure of change in tourism expenditure of Gangwon Province, and the competition and complementary relationship of tourist demand were analyzed among 18 counties in Gangwon by Dendrinos-Sonis method. The spatial accessibility has a significant effect on the increase in amount of tourist expenditure, but by 1% increase in the accessibility resulted in a reduction of length of stay -0.18% and travel costs -0.34% by respectively. The most powerful variable for improving the on-site economy is the tourist service establishment, which increases one unit, the amount of tourist expenditure increased by 3.6%. Moreover, the competition and supplemental relationship of tourism demands in Gangwon was decided by the conditions under which traffic flow with passing occurred, such as inland or ocean-typed travel attractions, adjacent or remote regions to the highway. The limitations of this study were not able to use raw data of tourism expenditures before and after the opening the highway due to the restriction of priority data, and further research on the appropriate level of spatial accessibility for the regional economy is needed.

본 연구는 고속도로의 투자로 인한 공간적 접근성 변화가 관광객지출구조 및 지역경제에 미치는 효과를 분석하였다. 분석방법은 SUR(Seemingly Unrelated Regressions)기법을 사용하여 강원도의 관광지출구조의 변화를 분석하고, 관광객 유치를 둘러싼 강원도 18개 시군의 지역간 경쟁 및 보완관계는 덴드리노스-소니스(Dendrinos-Sonis) 모형을 적용하여 확인하였다. 공간적 접근성의 개선은 관광지출액의 증가에 유의미한 효과를 나타내지만, 접근성 1% 상승 시 체재기간 -0.18%, 여행비용은 -0.34%를 각각 감소시켰다. 시군별 관광사업체 1개소가 늘어날 때, 관광지출액은 3.6% 증가하였으며, 이를 통해 관광서비스 공급이 지역경제 개선에 효과적인 수단임이 확인되었다. 강원도 시군 간 관광수요의 경쟁 및 보완관계는 기능상으로 내륙형 혹은 해양형 관광지 여부, 지리적 인접여부, 통과교통 발생 등에 의하여 결정되었다. 강원도는 관광객 유인을 위한 교통기반시설의 지속적 확충과 함께 체재기간 연장을 위한 서비스 공급 및 질적 관리가 필요하며, 지역간 보완관계가 높게 나타나는 강릉, 동해, 속초, 원주 등을 중심으로 관광객 극대화를 위한 지역클러스터 전략 수립이 중요하다고 판단된다. 본 연구의 한계는 우선 자료의 제약으로 고속도로 개통 전후의 실제 관광지출액을 토대로 한 변화를 규명할 수 없었고, 공간적 접근성의 적정 수준에 대한 후속 연구가 필요하고 판단된다.
