Overall Design Concept of Municipal Reconstruction of Cross-City Expressway
The municipal reconstruction of the cross-city expressway is of great significance in enlarging the urban framework,refining the spatial pattern,and promoting the integrated development of clusters.However,China's expressways seldom undergo municipal reconstruction,with less synergy formed with cities.Therefore,taking one case described above in Hebei Province as an example,this article proposed the overall design concept of integrating with the city from urban space,road networks,municipal facilities,urban ecology,cultural landscape,and other perspectives after analyzing problems in urban space,traffic,industry,landscape and urban quality in existing cross-city expressways.In addition,this paper studied and optimized the municipal reconstruction plan.Holding a theme of"municipalization",the plan eliminated the fragmentation of urban space by expressways and strengthened the integration of expressways and cities.
