New progress has been made in the comprehensive development of rail transit TOD in the main urban area of Chongqing. On April 13, 2021, news from Chongqing Transportation Development Investment Group stated that the first batch of rail transit TOD (public transit-oriented development model) comprehensive development-rail transit line 1 4 TOD city demonstrations after review by the expert group The preliminary urban design plan for the stations (Majiayan Station, Weidianyuan Station, Laijiaqiao Station, Ciqikou Station) has been released.

Track Line 1

4 stations on Line 1

"TOD comprehensive development is an important carrier for improving the city's energy level and realizing urban renewal, and it is also an important measure to build a high-quality'main city metropolitan area on track'." said Li Fangyu, chairman of Chongqing Communications Development Investment Group.

At present, Chongqing's rail transit has entered a critical period of accelerating construction. After all the four phases of planned projects are started within this year, the scale of construction under construction will reach 384 kilometers. By 2025, the total scale of the city's rail transit will reach 1,000 kilometers.

According to the plan, Chongqing will speed up the comprehensive development of rail transit TOD. These 4 TOD city demonstration stations on Line 1 were selected by the Municipal Planning and Natural Resources Bureau in conjunction with Chongqing Transportation Development Investment Group from the 14 stations on the entire line.

These four stations will determine the slow network density according to local conditions based on the nature of the site's land use, development intensity and mixing degree in the region. The network density should be increased around the public activity center and rail transit station to create a high-quality slow travel system. That is, with the cultural and sports park as the core and the subway station as the supporting point, a spatial network of "cultural, sports, landscape and subway station" is formed.

At the same time, Chongqing will continue to deepen the plan design, further implement the layout of rental housing, underground space development, rail transit branding, etc., through the TOD area as the core organization of urban production, life, and ecological pattern, forming a function of industry-city integration and job-housing balance Layout to maximize the comprehensive effects of TOD development.

Microelectronics Park TOD Demonstration Station

The TOD Demonstration Station of the Microelectronics Park is a "technological innovation" site. It will set up multiple types of businesses such as complexes and commercial streets, improve the supporting facilities of the new urban industrial area, and build a new commercial and commercial center with industry-city linkage and diversified functions, and layout of offices and commerce. , Hotels, apartments and rental housing.

That is to create a central square, increase greening, design a slow-moving matrix system, densify the connection between the central square and the community greening, and connect the important space nodes of the city by building a TOD core ring.

At present, the existing road network around Weidianyuan Station is relatively complete, but the road network on the south side is affected by undeveloped, and the accessibility is relatively weak. The site can reach 280 hectares within a 15-minute walk. According to the plan, the roads around the site will be improved, the internal slow-moving system will be encrypted, the central axis square will be extended to the south, and the walkable range of the southern area will be increased.

Laijiaqiao TOD Demonstration Station

The Laijiaqiao TOD Demonstration Station is a "technological innovation" site. Through the "one core, one belt, one ring" TOD plan, relying on green ecology and waterfront resources, the riverside commercial and medical facilities are improved, and the smart and livable service for industrial talents is created Life circle.

Layout ecological communities, high-quality housing and rental housing, improve the living quality of talents in the high-tech zone and the western (Chongqing) Science City, and build an ecologically smart and livable place for green sharing and serving talents.

"One Core" uses the scientist community as the engine, the "One Belt" uses the scientist community and TOD supporting businesses to form a commercial belt along the river, and the "One Ring" is the ecological living and living area.

Ciqikou TOD Demonstration Station

The Ciqikou TOD Demonstration Station is a "humanistic heritage" site. Through the TOD planning of "one core, two axes, and multiple clusters", it will build an innovative business travel destination with cultural rejuvenation and consumption upgrades.

According to the plan, by optimizing roads, establishing cable cars, and creating slow-moving corridors of mountains and rivers, the scattered scenic spots will be connected in series to build a one-day tour system. At the same time, establish a slow-moving system to optimize the atmosphere of the commercial pedestrian street, so that the accessibility of the Jialing River Binjiang area can be better improved; combined with the track station to set up a Ciqikou tourist center, strengthen the connection between the main nodes, and create a 5-10 minute bus ride in the Ciqikou scenic spot route.

At the same time, it will complement the urgently needed high-end hotels, high-quality residential areas, cultural and commercial functions in the Shaci Scenic Area, and create a cultural consumption core that integrates Ciqikou, Cummins, and Geleshan.

Majiayan TOD Demonstration Station

The Majiayan TOD Demonstration Station is a "urban revival" site, which connects urban spaces and a "cultural and sports park" through "one belt and two axes" to create a district engine and build a new cultural and sports-led, ecologically complex urban service center.

The "One Belt" mainly forms the TOD core functional area link through the community cultural center and the urban green corridor; the "Two Axis" connects the cities through the regional chronic system and the TOD site to resolve the original elevation difference.

At the same time, relying on high-quality public resources such as medical care and universities near the site, create a regional scarce public service center to form an ecological, popular, and livable comprehensive activity area that meets the needs of various customer groups. In the core functional area, a public transportation system suitable for mountainous areas will be introduced to facilitate the travel of local residents.
