Chongchuan district has made solid progress in 2020 in improving urban quality and reused more than 60 hectares of land which had been used inefficiently. The protection and development of areas such as Rengangwan and Tangzha ancient town are being promoted. Breakthroughs have been achieved in the ecological protection of the Yangtze River and the governance of polluted rivers.

In the next stage, Chongchuan district will further expand the space for urban development, enhance the industrial quality and city value, and construct 11 key areas with characteristics.

Focusing on high-end industries, the southern areas of Chongchuan Economic Development Zone and Shibei Hi-tech Park will be built into a highland for the new generation information technology industry.

Giving play to the advantage of being located at the riverfront, Rengangwan and Wulonghui are to be constructed as high-quality urban sub-centers.

The Nantong Railway Station traffic hub and the expanding area of the high-speed railway new city will become a new engine for modern service and advanced manufacturing industries in the district.

The new urban industrial cluster along the Tonglyu canal will integrate superior resources, strengthen its industrial chain and plan to foster emerging industries.

The Guanyin Mountain smart community will be upgraded as a benchmark of intelligent, high-quality life in Chongchuan district. Renowned cultural areas such as Sijie Street, Tangzha ancient town and Tiansheng Port are to be constructed into demonstration zones for cultural and tourism experiences. Targeted at becoming high-quality commercial streets, the transformation and upgrading of Nandajie and Beidajie streets are being accelerated.
