According to the guiding thought “high starting point, high standard, high efficiency, high grade” proposed by the municipal Party committee and municipal government, at the earlier stage Wuhan CBD invested huge amount of money to invite McKinsey, Pricewaterhouse Coopers and Jones Lang LaSalle to conduct successively the strategic planning and financial feasibility study and the strategic planning scheme of the booster sector.

In accordance with the international convention, the innovative thought “first study, then collect, last assemble” was adopted. More than 10 well-known design organs both at home and abroad such as America SOM were invited to participate the case study. At the same time, a number of well-known experts both at home and abroad formed Wuhan CBD planning expert consultation committee. The CBD absorbs the advanced concepts and original design ideas and gathers the international top talents. In June 2004, The General Planning Scheme of Wuhan Wangjiadun District was completed by Wuhan Municipal Academy of Urban Planning and Design and approved by Wuhan Municipal People’s Government in December 2004.

City of accessibility: adopting the multilevel traffic network and humanized traffic concepts. Taking the traffic “golden cross” as the axe. Combining with the interchange fly-over system, pedestrian facilities accessible from all directions such as the pedestrian street, corridors and the light railway transportation. A high-efficient and smooth road network will be formed.

City of greenery: introducing environmental protection and sustainable development concepts. Putting stress on the construction of ecological space. Not only ensuring high quality living conditions but also providing a free, harmonious, relaxed environment and an enjoyable “green space” for working and living.

City of Vitality: Wuhan CBD makes efforts to release all the business possibilities to the largest degree. The specialty commercial street and stores provide excellent night shopping places. Theatres, concert halls, art museums and cinemas offer the high-grade night entertainment places. Water-adjoining bars, cafés, and high-grade restaurants provide the romantic night leisure places. Besides, there are open-air exhibition grounds. The plazas also set off the bustling atmosphere at night in the CBD, the 24-hour “sleepless city”.

City of information: putting stress on information-based construction. Having the high-speed network which connects the whole district. Providing such whole-day service as broadband, special lines and satellite T-R stations to receive the global latest information in time. People can get on to the Net at any time any place and enjoy the advanced 3G (mobile) service. All this makes the connection between Wuhan CBD and the world more close and convenient. The CBD is an international information-based commercial center in the 21st century.
