As the first station on the Yangtze River to enter Jiangsu, Nanjing has a total length of 97 kilometers and a main bank of about 190 kilometers. It is also the only city in Jiangsu province that has a route across the river.

On November 12, the talk group of the web-themed event “Dancing the Yangtze River Economic Belt and Seeing High-Quality Development” arrived in Nanjing and walked along the river to have a close experience of Nanjing’s accession to the concept of “ecology first and green development” and described it on the banks of the Yangtze River. Beautiful roll of new image.

The production coast becomes an ecological coast

The Muyan Riverside area is located in the north of the main city of Nanjing. It used to be a major source of taxes supporting Nanjing’s economic development. There were 404 original chemicals and other enterprises with an annual production value of about 32 billion yuan. But at the same time, it also placed a great burden on the ecology of the Yangtze River and once became a major source of pollution for the city.

Today, standing on the bank of the Yangtze River in Yanziji Binjiang Park, what you can see is the beautiful scenery of swaying willows and greens, and flying seagulls.

According to Chen Zhimin, director of the Planning and Development Department of Yanziji New Town, Nanjing, he has been working in Yanziji New Town for 6 years. In the past 6 years, it has witnessed the process of gradual improvement of the ecological environment here. “The landscapes of Muyan Riverside Riverside that we can see now have been transformed from the original production-oriented shoreline,” said Chen Zhimin. The sand factories, docks and chemical companies that once entrenched the river were relocated and closed. Stop, strictly carry out soil restoration and water quality control, and restore approximately 1.6 million square meters of green vegetation along the entire route. Restoring the attractions of the park, creating a cultural and ecological green corridor, truly returning the river to the people and the shore to the people, leaving a riverside style with clear water and green benches for the people along the river, and providing more recreation and open spaces for citizens.

Arriving at the Green Expo Park in Nanjing’s Hexi New Town, many citizens slowly walk along the fitness trail along the river bank, along with the crystal clear waters and green benches and birdsong, which show the ecological beauty of the Yangtze River.

Liu Yanjun, a member of the Nanjing Hexi Management Committee’s Ecological Development Division, introduced that the four-season flowers planted here are endless. The theater area is connected as the cultural and sports hub of Hexi. The Green Expo Park area not only shows the protection of the green ecology of the riverbank, but also builds many cultural and leisure facilities in this cultural and sports hub, and becomes a water park for people’s leisure and entertainment. .

The Green Expo Park is just one of many green buttons in the Hexi Yangtze River Economic Belt. On the 11-kilometer river bank, Nanjing Hexi New City scientifically uses its own resources from the Yangtze River section of “multiple shores, diverse landscapes and diverse cultures” to draw a picture of beautiful landscapes with beautiful environments intertwined blue and green. In the “Nanjing Charming Riverside 2035” plan released this year and the “Nine Urban Living Room” design plan (draft for comments) on a river and two banks in Nanjing, Hexi Jianye occupies three locations. “In the future, we will take people’s needs as a starting point and combine the creation of Hexi Yuzui City Living Room, Happy Riverside City Living Room and Green Expo Garden City Living Room to provide citizens with a more comfortable leisure place together to the river, “Liu Yanjun said.

The Yangtze River link between North and South

Economic development requires transportation first. For Nanjing, which was built across the river, the Yangtze River was not only a horizontal “golden water belt”, but also a vertical “barrier belt.”

According to the “Distribution Plan for Yangtze River Main Line Crossing Passes (2020-2035)”, as of 2035, Nanjing has planned 24 river crossings, 27 in total. Among them, there are 14 ways that cross river channels, 4 railways that cross river channels and 9 ways that cross river channels.

Standing in front of the Nanjing river crossing pass planning map, the long-term view of the Nanjing roundabout line unfolds in front of you.

“The fifth bridge over the Nanjing Yangtze River and the canal crossing the Puyi Expressway under construction will form a closed circular ring of Nanjing Express with the second bridge over the Nanjing Yangtze River, the Ring Road and Jiangbei Avenue.” Nanjing Yangtze River, Nanjing Public Works Construction Center Lai Yongman, the person in charge of the site of the fifth bridge, introduced that the fifth Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge is an important link between the Nanjing Olympic sports section and the section of Jiangbei New District. The construction of the fifth Yangtze River Bridge in Nanjing will not only help promote the development of the Yangtze River Economic Belt, but will also be of great importance in improving the design of the national trunk roads and the passageways that cross the river on the stretches. lower reaches of the Yangtze River, supporting the construction of the Nanjing Nationwide Jiangbei New Area and relieving traffic pressure across the river.

Nanjing’s Fifth Yangtze River Bridge embodies the concept of ecological and environmental protection throughout the planning and construction process. Lai Yongman said that Nanjing’s Fifth Yangtze River Bridge has adopted a variety of technical means, such as prefabricated assembly, physical isolation and elimination of oil pollution to effectively protect the ecological environment of the Yangtze River. Build a completely enclosed concrete mixing plant without dust and noise, and achieve zero air pollution and zero wastewater discharge. At the same time, a porpoise repellent system was installed on the pier on the north shore of the bridge to emit special sound waves to prevent accidental collision of the finless porpoise, in order to reduce the adverse impact of the construction on the finless porpoise. fins. Numerous technological innovations, complex construction techniques, and high-level engineering management requirements have also enabled the project to win a number of national architecture awards, and it was listed as a model for the construction of passageways across the river in a powerful country. in Jiangsu province.
