World's top urban planners envision new Beijing CBD

Guangzhou City Planning and Design Institute:

The plan by Guangzhou City Planning and Design Institute focuses on the pressing challenge of traffic congestion. Its solution is to build underground, surface and elevated traffic facilities - an idea borrowed from the city of Guangzhou.

The plan's designers estimate 70 percent of people in the new CBD can arrive and leave by public transport with the completion of the facilities.

Guangzhou City Planning and Design Institute is famous for its design for the Guangdong Olympic Center.
