Abstract Based on the urban data during 2001-2011, by applying AHP and cross-DEA, the authors evaluate the cities’ infrastructure levels and industrial efficiency values in Bohai Rim, Yangtze Delta and Zhujiang Delta economy circle. Then, with spatial econometric model introduced from spatial spillover theory, the authors examined the influence of infrastructure on regional industrial efficiency. The results show that the infrastructure’s promote effect on local industrial efficiency and the spatial spillover effect on nearby cities are both significant and positive, and these effects of various items of infrastructure are different in the three regions. Transportation infrastructure effects on the industrial efficiency are dominant in Bohai Rim. Communication and energy infrastructures are respectively dominant in Yangtze Delta and Zhujiang Delta. Both transportation infrastructure and communication infrastructure have positive spatial spillover effect in Bohai Rim, Yangtze Delta economy circle, while communication and energy infrastructures have positive spatial spillover effect in Zhujiang Delta economy circle.
