I'm not a Shanghainese, I'm a a hardcore Central China citizen.
But I always admire Shanghai people's insight and open-mindedness

City set for global excellence by 2040
http://www.shanghaidaily.com/metro/society/City-set-for-global-excellence-by-2040/shdaily.shtml
THE Shanghai government is soliciting public opinion on a master plan for 2040 which aims to develop an “excellent global city.”
Urban development blueprints covering population, the environment, transport and public services are on display at the Shanghai Urban Planning and Exhibition Center until September 21.
“By 2040, Shanghai aims to become an excellent global city, an international economic, finance, trade, shipping and scientific innovation center, as well as a cultural metropolis,” said Zhuang Shaoqin, director of the city’s planning, land and resources administration. In short, he added, it will become an “innovative, humanistic and eco-friendly city.”
To achieve these goals, the city will take measures to better control construction and population growth, as well as protect the environment and improve urban safety, he said.
According to the plan, the city’s population will be limited to 25 million by 2040, the same target as set for 2020.
Shanghai had 24.3 million residents at the end of 2014.
The total land area allocated for construction will be limited to 3,200 square kilometers, 26 percent of which will be residential, according to the plan. The city’s construction land area reached 3,124 square kilometers in 2014, meaning 46 percent of the land area has been developed, exceeding the figures for New York, Tokyo and Hong Kong.
Forests and parks will occupy the rest of the city’s land to make it ecologically friendly. Forest coverage will reach 25 percent, and each resident will have 15 square meters of public parks or green land on average by 2040, according to the plan. The city’s current per capita public green space is about 7 square meters.
Average density of PM2.5 — hazardous fine particle air pollution — will be reduced to about 20 micrograms per cubic meter, compared with last year’s 53 micrograms.
To cut average commuting times to under 40 minutes by 2040, the city plans to add about 1,000 kilometers to the subway network, 1,000 kilometers to the intercity railway network and another 1,000 kilometers of tram lines.
More than half of downtown residents will rely on public transport by then, said Xu Yisong, deputy director of the bureau, and over 60 percent of residents will have a subway station within 600 meters of where they live.
There will be 10 art galleries, two museums and five libraries for every 100,000 residents and sports lovers will also benefit from at least five new professional football fields, as well as more gymnasiums and training centers.
More international communities for expats and apartments to accommodate professionals will be built to attract talent from around the world.
The plan, in Chinese only, can be seen at supdri.com/2040 and people can e-mail suggestions to ilovesh2040@126.com by September 21.
