With the theme of interweaving green corridors around the city, exploring integration of urban and suburb areas, and stimulating the city’s peripheral vitality space, Longgang District will build the “New Municipal Administration” engineering model project and improve the urban environment in an all-round way for a high-quality city proper suitable for residence, industry and tourism. With conventional municipal public facilities along railway lines, fire passages, and urban roads, new highlights of urban space quality improvement lie in building a pleasant urban micro-environment through the power of design and application of “New Municipal Administration” idea! In such a case, the Bureau of Public Works of Longgang District will launch the first “New Municipal Administration” engineering projects, give full play to the advantages of Longgang’s ecological background, build a number of backbone ecological corridors, realize the interconnection of ecological way, green way and eco-corridors, and build the ecological picture of “blue interwoven into green surrounded by mountains and rivers”.
“Forest Affinity Program” is a key theme first proposed by the Bureau of Public Works of Longgang District to build the new municipal administration engineering model. The first five landscape projects will be launched in conjunction with the competition for conceptual scheme design in the hope of breaking the stereotype of monotonous and tedious municipal facilities in the past, endowing a modern, engaging and diverse sense of design, fully tapping into the cultural value connotation of public facilities, and providing a new model for the design of municipal facilities in Longgang District and Shenzhen!

Commercial Avenue on Bao’an Chuangye Road is located in Xin’an Subdistrict, Bao’an District, Shenzhen. This area is not only covered by the “Guangzhou – Shenzhen – Hong Kong – Macao” Science and Technology Innovation Corridor, but also the core of Bao’an Urban Development Axis. The south of Commercial Avenue is close to the Bao’an Central District and Qianhai Cooperation Zone, surrounded by National High-tech Zones such as Tiezaishan and Jiangangshan, and Liuxiandong Headquarters Base. With the continuous improvement of the city level, Commercial Avenue will become the urban axis connecting “modern service industry” and “intelligent manufacturing industry”. Based on Shenzhen goal of building an international consumption and trade center city, the Commercial Avenue will further optimize its spatial and functional, steadily improve its commercial service quality and competitiveness, and create a new commercial highland.
Site Location
This international consultation includes two scopes: the overall research and detailed design.
For overall research: The area is about 13.4 sqkm. It starts from Haixiu Road in the southwest and ends at Liuxian 3rd Road in the northeast. It is a strip area within a range of about 1 to 1.5 kilometers offset from both sides of Chuangye Road.
For detailed design: The area is about 5.3 sqkm. It starts from Xinhu Road in the southwest and ends at Liuxian 3rd Road in the northeast. It is a strip area of about 500 meters offset from both sides of Chuangye Road, including some important public spaces such as Lingzhi Park, Xin’an Park, Xin’an Square, Xinzhen River.

Background
The work report from Second Session of the Seventh National People’s Congress of Shenzhen pointed out that Shenzhen needs to implement the strategy of expanding domestic demand, improve both domestic and international economic cycle, increase high quality investment, make Shenzhen an international center city for consumption and trade. Besides, it is necessary to strengthen the city by continuously improving the cultural influence, and build a city that is national civilized model, regional culture center, and international tourist attraction. At the same time, Shenzhen should explore new forms and new model of consumption including bringing more well-known brands and advanced concept stores, developing various consumption such as customized, fashion and experience.
The 7th Congress of CPC of Bao’an clarified that in the next five years, Bao’an will focus on improving its manufacture industries and become the leading district with socialism with Chinese characteristics. The development goal for Bao’an is to build an advanced coastal city with world-class manufacturing industries and high-quality living environment. We believe in the next five years, Bao’an will take advantage of the momentum and lead the development of the whole bay area with a steady foundation.
This consultation proposes to have the commercial avenue built along Chuangye Road considering the existing foundation of the advanced manufacturing and commercial service, diversified urban cultures and superior location of this area. Besides, as Xin’an Subdistrict has been included into the metropolis core area of Shenzhen and the expansion of Qianhai Cooperation Zone, there will be more opportunities for the area along Chuangye Road. It is hoped that the construction of Commercial Avenue will focus on demonstrating the prosperous and innovative power of Bao’an, and take Chuangye Road as the axis exploring the new way of combining intelligent manufacturing industry and modern service industries, building a leading urban spaces integrating production, living and ecology. This will help develop the surrounding areas for a continuous urban vitality area.
Work Description
This international consultation will work on building an international, world-class and benchmark district in the bay area along Chuangye Road. The work will be based on goals of linking Qianhai district and Bao’an district, stitching of old and new urban areas, compounding of intelligent manufacturing and modern services, and multi-dimensional symbiosis of business. Thus, this international consultation includes the following four key tasks:
Commerce and industry planning: Explore the integration of modern service industry and intelligent manufacturing industry, study the direction of the commerce and industry development in the area, analyze the commercial business format, model, scale, etc., and put forward suggestions on business layout, space mode, operation, etc.
Arranging public spaces: Overall planning of public spaces in the area, optimizing the existing public space elements such as both sides of the Commercial Avenue, Xinzhen River, Xin’an Park, Lingzhi Park, Chuangye Interchange, and areas along the Guangzhou-Shenzhen Expressway. The design for public spaces should combine with commercial planning to establish a high-quality environment.
Integration of old and new urban areas: Pay attention to the history, culture, residents and urban features of both old and new urban areas, promote the integration and coexistence of them to enhance the image of the city.
Optimization of transportation organization: Establish a comprehensive transportation system that matches the overall positioning and development scale, and take into account the areas closed to railway station should be developed as an integrated spaces both above and underground and combined with the business forms.With above four aspects considered, applicants should put up specific design guidelines for urban design, redevelopment of existing built urban space, planning implementation strategies, etc.
