ABSTRACT

With the renewal of the city, the function of internal roads in the old urban area is not only limited to ensuring the basic travel of residents, but also supporting the renewal of blocks along the road, the axis of urban image display, and the support for public services and leisure and recreation of residents. However, there are prominent issues such as insufficient road capacity, poor slow traffic travel environment, and outdated overall facilities in the internal roads of the old urban areas. Based on this, this article takes the reconstruction of a typical urban trunk road in an old urban area as a case study. Firstly, it analyzes the existing problems of the road situation, proposes the reconstruction goals of improving travel quality, improving road landscape, and enhancing street vitality. Secondly, it elaborates the road reconstruction plan in detail from the aspects of cross-section reconstruction, slow traffic system reconstruction, public transportation system reconstruction, intersection reconstruction, parking system reconstruction. Finally summarizes the design highlights of the project and the problems encountered in design and solutions. The purpose of this article is to explore solutions for improving the transportation environment and comprehensive renovation of the street environment in the context of urban renewal, promoting urban renewal in old urban areas through road renovation, and providing reference for similar projects in the future.
