This paper analyses whether regions benefit from their neighbours’ transport facili-ties. We focus on ports and estimate a gravity model of trade that includes port facilitiesindicators as explanatory variables. The model is estimated by using exports from 19 Spanishregions to 45 countries from 2000 onwards. To test for the existence of regional spillovers, weconstruct a weight matrix that takes into account the relative importance of the neighbouringports, as well as the quality of port infrastructure in destination countries. The findings suggestthat regional spillovers play a larger role than port facilities themselves in the growth of Spanishexports. [-]
