In 3 years, 330 old residential areas were renovated
Yongchuan is one of the first districts and counties in Chongqing to implement the transformation of old residential areas, and in the process of implementing the transformation of old residential areas, Yongchuan Creation has summarized a set of effective experience and practices:
Such as full respect for public opinion. In the early stage of transformation, on-site investigation and visits to residents, convening community owners' representative meetings, owners' courtyard dam meetings, etc., combing, classifying, and summarizing the opinions and suggestions of transformation, changing the government to the masses want to change, fully mobilizing the enthusiasm and initiative of residents, and realizing common consultation, joint implementation, and joint supervision, so as to gather consensus, form a joint force, and achieve joint consultation, co-construction, and sharing.
Such as the implementation of "menu" services. Focusing on the hot and difficult issues where residents have the strongest voice, according to the scope of renovation and guiding standards, the owners' committee (or selected representatives) will check the projects according to the renovation needs of the residents in the community, and then hire institutions with professional qualifications in accordance with the requirements of "one point one plan" to formulate special design plans and construction plans.
Such as focusing on long-term management. After the completion of the transformation, according to the scale of each community, the current management status and the affordability of residents and other factors, on the basis of soliciting the wishes of residents, tailor-made property management methods for the transformed community, and introduce professional property service enterprise management for qualified communities to solve the long-term management problem after the transformation.
Located at No. 37 Yuping North Road, the Biyuan Community of Petroleum Hui is like this. Built in the 1980s, with 26 residential and office buildings, the Petroleum Hui Biyuan Community originally belonged to the family community of the Chongqing Gas Mine of the Southwest Oil and Gas Field Branch, which is a typical enterprise staff community. The large proportion of elderly residents and the aging of infrastructure facilities are prominent problems in the community.
In May 2021, Yongchuan District invested 12.8 million yuan to carry out a series of renovations and upgrades to the Petroleum Huibiyuan Community: first, infrastructure transformation, repair of damaged pavements in the community, and regularization of mobile communication overhead lines into the ground; second, upgrading public services, rectifying the greening and lighting environment in the community, and building facilities for the elderly, barrier-free facilities, sports and fitness facilities, and cultural and leisure facilities in the community; third, improving the service functions of the community, and building a canteen, a health care center, and an activity center for the elderly in buildings 3, 4 and 7 of the community. And the construction of slow walking trails, the formation of a pension leisure center area, to solve the daily needs of the elderly residents of the community.
The huge changes in the community have excited the residents of the Oil Hui Biyuan community. "The remodeled community is really beautiful, especially this health center, it is really practical, and we are particularly at ease living here." Song Dexiu, a resident of Huibiyuan Community on Yongchuan Petroleum Road, looked at the smile on the face of the transformed community.

From 2020 to 2021, Yongchuan will also extend the transformation policy of old residential areas and expand the implementation of township block improvement. In addition to the four streets in the central urban area, 19 town streets administrative station field town, focusing on the "five major pieces and six small pieces" to implement rectification and upgrading, with a total investment of 136 million yuan, a total of 16 new public parks and squares, upgrading the town street sidewalks, shop signs, drainage pipe networks, cultural nodes and other projects, the transformation area of about 1.99 million square meters.
The "five major pieces" are the construction and transformation of public facilities in the town, namely the park square, the welcome artery, the farmers' market, the public parking lot, and the public toilet; the "six small pieces" refer to the completion and improvement of the six aspects of the main blocks of the town, including road paving, shop signs, the ground floor building, the entrance environment, cultural nodes, block order and other elements.
The mud became a punch card
In the renovation project of the old residential area implemented in the first three years, Yongchuan generally implemented the transformation according to the three ideas of version 1.0, version 2.0 and version 3.0 according to the actual situation of each community and its surroundings.
Version 1.0 is to make up for the shortcomings of facilities, including improving basic living facilities such as roads, greening, fire protection, lighting, elevators, rain shelters, anti-theft nets; version 2.0 is to upgrade public services, including improving the quality of public service facilities or places such as parking lots, leisure squares, drying fields, fitness and sports fields; version 3.0 is to sublimate spiritual needs, including improving the "five major pieces" of health care centers, community canteens, children's activity centers, community activity centers, and party and mass service centers, and creating a friendly community for all ages.
Among these projects, the Urban Restoration Project of the Sanhehuibi Area is a special case.
SanheHuibi Area Urban Restoration Project is located in the core area of Yongchuan Old Town, which is not only the first of yongchuan's ancient "Eight Views of Changzhou", but also the birthplace of Yongchuan City, named after the "Yong" character of Sanhehui Bi shaped like a seal, which has extremely special historical and cultural value.
With the passage of time, the architectural style of the SanheHuibi area is mottled and old, the wall skin is peeling off, the private construction is chaotic, the pipeline is silted, the public environment is chaotic, the urban infrastructure is seriously lacking, and the phenomenon of "dirty, chaotic and poor" is very prominent.
△ Children play happily in the Sanhe Huibi Characteristic Cultural Square
In July 2019, in accordance with the concept of "building in pieces, complete communities, ecological restoration, and urban repair", Yongchuan launched the urban organic renewal of Sanhehuibi Area and the transformation of old residential areas in the area. Its main practices are:

To build a "home city" of life home and a garden of happiness
"Our newly implemented three-year organic renewal action of the old city is a new version of urban renewal based on the Three Rivers Huibi project." The person in charge of the Urban Construction Section of the Yongchuan District Housing and Urban-Rural Development Committee said, "We have now compiled the "Yongchuan District Urban Organic Renewal Planning and Construction Guidance", the new version will focus on the quality and efficiency of urban stock space resources, from the two dimensions of meeting people's lives and production, to create a 'home city' of life home and a garden of happiness, so that the old city has more fireworks, book fragrance, and a sense of age." ”
According to the plan, Yongchuan's "homeland city" is mainly composed of five major homes: First, the beautiful home with beautiful mountains and clear waters, by creating a park city that pushes the window to see the green and go out to see the scenery, so that the green is more distinctive and yongchuan is more ecological. The second is a warm home that is friendly to all ages. By creating an all-ages friendly living environment and a convenient and smooth 15-minute community life circle, children can grow up happily and let the elderly live a long and comfortable life. The third is the nostalgic homeland of "going back". Through the scene to reproduce the perceptible and reachable historical picture, let the city leave a memory, let people remember nostalgia.

Fifth, the safe homeland guarded by the whole city. By creating a safe living environment and public space, health is more secure and travel is safer.
According to the existing ecological base of the old city, combined with the urban spatial structure, Yongchuan has determined that "one core and three pieces" will be the key areas of urban renewal: "one core" is the core area of Sanhe Huibi - Beishan; "three pieces" is the Yingjing Road area, the Shengli Road area and the Xiaojiachong area.
Its implementation path is to focus on the community, street corners, lanes, traditional old shops, riverfront trails, etc., the implementation of the "7 100" special action, to promote the overall improvement of the functional connotation of the old city: first, the transformation of 100 old communities, focusing on improving infrastructure, improving public services, and building a full-age friendly community as the starting point, to promote the new beauty of the old city community; the second is to shape 100 urban street corners, focusing on the implementation of Lohas street corners, landscape decoration, theme sketches, rest seats as the starting point, adding to the comfort and livability of the old city The third is to display 100 urban memories, focusing on the implementation of community story halls, historical light exhibition halls, and filial piety micro-parks as the starting point to show the beauty of the historical context of the old city; the fourth is to build 100 community micro-living rooms, focusing on the construction of a 15-minute community life circle and a home service complex as the starting point to create the beauty of harmony and happiness in the old city; fifth, the implementation of 100 kilometers of urban slow roads, focusing on the construction of four linear landscape parks of jumping river, shengli river, Yuping River, and Linjiang River, and implementing riverfront greenways and sidewalk upgrading projects.
