During the past five years, with nearly two billion yuan in investments for city construction, the city has taken on a completely new look, particularly in urban facilities, roads, polluted rivers and aged communities. Three expressways have begun construction as well. Other projects undergoing construction include several urban trunk roads, five sewage treatment plants, and household garbage landfills. The city has also built 2,000 low-rent houses for low-income residents. These measures have improved the living conditions of the people who say they are happier than before.
