On September 27, urbanDATA Design and Yantai Planning Institute presented the Conceptual Plan for Fushan Northern Zone to leadership teams of Yantai Fushan District Government and Fushan High-Tech Industrial Park Management Committee, receiving high recognition from the clients.

Core Planning Philosophy: Industry-City Integration

The plan focuses on translating industrial strategies into urban spatial solutions, proposing executable industrial and spatial frameworks to guide future development:

  1. Industrial Planning
    • Leveraging Yantai's status as Shandong's largest vehicle and powertrain production base (automotive being one of the city's "7+N" 100-billion-yuan industries)
    • Prioritizing automotive manufacturing as the core sector
    • Supporting local industrial upgrading while introducing emerging sectors: New energy vehicles, smart vehicles, energy-efficient vehicles
    • Enhancing producer services and supporting facilities to attract high-value enterprises and talent
  2. Spatial Planning
    • Capitalizing on the zone's superior natural ecology
    • Adopting a polycentric cluster model with networked spatial structures
    • Creating an interconnected blue-green open space system that blends ecological and functional zones, and delivers high-quality living/working environments
    • Fostering innovation through curated spatial ecosystems

UrbanDATA will continue advancing the project with:

  • Global perspective informed by international benchmarks
  • Innovative solutions for industrial-urban synergy
  • Actionable strategies to ensure plan implementation
