The significance of developing new urban areas

As the core area of urban function and the effective radiation area of urban function expansion area, the new urban development area will play the role of "linking the main city and transmitting the periphery" in the future, and promote various constructions under the idea of "axial expansion and integration of production and city", and will become the main battlefield of Chongqing's industrialization and urbanization.

The new urban area, which is located in the "adhesion zone" between the core area of metropolis and the expansion area, is the main battlefield for Chongqing to write the new "four modernizations" and will focus on cultivating strategic and pillar industrial clusters of 1 billion and 1 billion.

Liu Guohua said that as a county, the continuous participation of outsiders is a manifestation of the city's increasing "magnetic force". However, he believes that objectively speaking, due to various restrictions, the economy of Tongliang in Chongqing has not yet "run" at full speed. "We have been waiting for the opportunity to fly higher."

In the Opinions on the Construction of Five Functional Zones, Tongliang District of Chongqing, together with 12 districts and counties such as Fuling District, Changshou District and Bishan District of Chongqing, and Wansheng and Shuangqiao Economic Development Zones, ranks among the "plates" of "New Urban Development Zone".

the new urban development zone is the effective radiation area of Chongqing's urban functional core area and expansion area. "It connects the urban core area and expansion area internally and connects the two wings externally, which is the' adhesion zone' between metropolis and ecological area."

in the east of the main city, relying on the national Chongqing Changshou Economic Development Zone and Chongqing Fuling Industrial Park, a comprehensive industrial base led by heavy chemical industry will be built.

in western Chongqing, relying on Chongqing Yongchuan, Chongqing Jiangjin, Chongqing Bishan, Chongqing Shuangqiao, Chongqing Dazu, Chongqing Rongchang and other industrial parks, an advanced manufacturing cluster led by equipment manufacturing and electronic information will be built; Relying on Chongqing Hechuan, Chongqing Tongliang and Chongqing Tongnan Industrial Park, it will build a characteristic industrial cluster dominated by mechanical processing and textile food.

in southern Chongqing, the Qijiang (including Wansheng) and Nanchuan in Chongqing, which are experiencing temporary difficulties due to the exhaustion of resources, will increase support for their industrial transformation and build "energy-carrying industries" and "suburban leisure tourism" clusters.

"This division of industrial structure can make full use of the industrial base accumulated in this area for many years." Li Yong, director of the Regional Economic Research Center of Chongqing Academy of Social Sciences, said that at present, the industrial output value in western Chongqing is only over 5 billion yuan. "According to the positioning determined by the opinions, there is still a lot of room for development in this area."

The new urban development zone "surrounds" the urban function expansion zone and "connects" the ecological conservation and ecological protection zone, which has the geographical advantages of "linking the main city and transmitting the surrounding areas", a broad development hinterland and a good industrial base. "Linkage and transmission" is an article that needs to be done well in the development of the new zone.

"After the location conditions are improved, it has always been the focus of Jiangjin's urban development in Chongqing. Tao Changhai, secretary of Chongqing Jiangjin District Party Committee, said that in the past, the focus of Chongqing Jiangjin's urban development was mainly on the Jijiang Peninsula south of the Yangtze River. In recent years, they have brought Shuang Fu, Degan and Binjiang New Town, which are north of the Yangtze River, into the central city. The promulgation of the Opinions of the Municipal Party Committee is conducive to further strengthening their strategy of "linking the main city".

Jiangjin, Chongqing can continue to promote this strategy, mainly due to the substantial improvement of its own traffic conditions-on June 26th, Chongqing Jiangjin Dingshan Yangtze River Bridge was officially completed and opened to traffic. 5 minutes from Jiangjin City, Chongqing, to Chongqing Outer Ring Expressway and Xipeng Group in Jiulongpo District, Chongqing ... 3 minutes from Jiangjin City, Chongqing, to reach the core area of Chongqing's main city ... < P > "It is the' half-hour main city' that Chongqing has vigorously implemented in recent years that makes Jiangjin move closer to the main city from running to gradually integrating into the main city." Tao Changhai said.

"Running into the main city" is also the "West Gate" Rongchang, Chongqing. By the end of this year, the Chongqing-Chengdu Expressway will be completed and opened to traffic. Together with the already opened Chongqing-Suirong Expressway and Chongqing-Neirong Expressway, and the three direct access expressways between Chongqing and Chengdu, Rongchang District of Chongqing, a city that once "guarded the border", has become a city with a superior geographical position and a long life.

other districts that have benefited from these three expressways include Yongchuan, Shuangqiao, Dazu, Tongnan, Tongliang and Bishan. Relying on the convenient transportation network, these districts and counties have achieved good industrial linkage with the main city in recent years.

for example, Yongchuan, Chongqing, which is the only transportation hub integrating expressways, railways and water terminals with a throughput of 45, tons, not only affects the surrounding counties in western Chongqing, but also directly radiates to Luzhou, Yibin and Hejiang, Sichuan, and can also play a "transmission" function.

experts believe that the function of "linkage and transmission" of the new urban development zone is expected to be realized at a higher level from the perspective of regional development. Li Yong said, "The Chongqing-Chengdu Economic Belt shoulders the strategic mission of promoting the development of the western region and promoting the coordinated development of the whole country. However, it is difficult to form a large-scale effective drive only by Chongqing and Chengdu, and the planning of urban development new areas may make this drive work. "

"To achieve a new growth pole, Chongqing should also establish such a peripheral economic zone that can play the role of' linkage and transmission'." Li Yong said that positioning western Chongqing as a new urban development zone is to accelerate the formation of urban clusters of advanced manufacturing bases in the areas between Chongqing and Chengdu, so as to turn the dumbbell-shaped development of megacities Chongqing and Chengdu into "ribbon-shaped" support, and further enhance the concentrated radiation function.
