These mega cities have been overwhelmed by increasing demands on limited service delivery capacity as growing clusters of informal settlements, home to significant numbers of informal sector workers, struggle to obtain basic services.

It has served Guangzhou since 2010, and is 17 kilometers from the city center. It is one the four main railway stations in Guangzhou. The other three are Guangzhou Railway Station, Guangzhou North Railway Station, and Guangzhou East Railway Station. After its opening, Guangzhou South Railway Station has been gradually taking the leading role of train transport from Guangzhou Railway Station, becoming one of the six key passenger train hubs of China. Despite of its easy accessibility from every corner of the city, ticket-checking and waiting would take a long time so we strongly suggest you be at the station as least 2 hours prior to your departure time, especially if you haven’t bought tickets in advance.

  • A Model Layout Region Optimization for Feeder Buses of Rail Transit
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Procedia - Social and Behavioral Sciences 43 ( 2012 ) 773 – 780 8th International Conference on Traffic and Transportation Studies Changsha, China, August 1–3, 2012 A Model Layout Region Optimization for Feeder Buses of Rail Transit Yucong Hua, Qi Zhanga, Weiping Wangb,* a School of Civil Engineering and Transportation, South China University of Technology, Guangzhou 510640, China b Dongguan Geographic Information & Urban Planning Research Center, Dongguan 523129, China Abstract This paper analyses the characteristics of urban rail transit and conventional buses and then expands on the necessity of combining them. Based on previous studies, a method of laying region and route of urban rail transit feeder buses is proposed. According to the definition of marginal trip distance which is the boundary of choosing a direct bus or rail-feeder bus (transfer is considered here) to destination, the influence of service level on passenger’s choosing behavior is combined with the generalized trip cost in the indirect gravitation-regions of urban rail transit. On this basis, a model for layout region of feeder buses is constructed and an algorithm is proposed. Finally, a numerical example of the joining routine layout between urban rail transit and conventional buses in Baiyun District, Guangzhou City, China is presented to evaluate the model. The result shows that the model with high accuracy is easy to apply, and is the important basis for laying design of feeder buses. © 20122012 PublishedPublished by by Elsevier Elsevier B.V. Ltd.

  • The Rise of Qianhai, China
    RESEA R CH TECHNICAL PAPER November 2014 THE RISE OF QIANHAI, CHINA: AN OPPORTUNITY OR A CHALLENGE? EXECUTIVE SUMMARY There is no doubt China has the world’s fastest-growing economy and its currency (RMB) has grown significantly over the past years in terms of the volume utilised for trade settlement, finance and investment. According to the latest survey compiled by the Society of Worldwide Interbank Financial Telecommunications (SWIFT), a global provider of secure financial messaging services, RMB payments worldwide have almost tripled in value over the past two years. As of September 2014, the RMB was ranked seventh in the top 20 global payments currencies. Looking forward, due to the increasing usage in Hong Kong, China and other offshore centers, it is predicted to be mature enough to become a reserve currency within the next five years. In order to cater for expanding settlement volumes, and support the future development of new products and services denominated in RMB, Qianhai in Shenzhen will play a unique role in fostering RMB internationalisation by accelerating the circulation of RMB funds across the border. In an effort to explore the opportunities and challenges Qianhai poses, Colliers will comment on the positioning of Qianhai in relation to Hong Kong and other factors, such as the Shanghai Free-Trade Zone (SHFTZ), and the latest development policies, such as the newly announced 15% corporate tax and its subject beneficiaries. Competition is inevitable but characterised by the Central Government supported incentives and policies, Colliers believe the position of Qianhai as a “special zone”, will provide more opportunities rather than challenges in and beyond the Pearl River Delta region.

This research is an attempt to unfold the current situation of women’s development within such context by studying the case of Guangdong -- the province as forerunner of China’s economic reform and opening-up -- drawing on current primary resources. First, this study reveals mixed results for women’s development in Guangdong: achievements have been made in education, employment and political participation in terms of “rates” and “numbers,” and small “breakthroughs” have taken place in legislation and women’s awareness of their equal rights and interests; however, limitations and challenges, like disparities between different women groups in addition to gender disparity, continue to exist.

Abstract. Along with the rapidly increasing pressure of urban transportation, China's subway operation is facing the challenge of high-density passenger flow. In order to improve the level of subway operation and ensure its safety, it is necessary to analyze and study the operation status of the metro station under the condition of high-density passenger flow, and propose the corresponding improvement scheme. Taking Guangzhou Metro as the study object, this paper discusses and analyzes the operation and management status of Guangzhou Metro Station. And combined with the risks and deficiencies in the operation and organization of Guangzhou metro, effective improvement measures are proposed in this paper. Operation Status of Guangzhou Metro The first line of Guangzhou Metro opened on June 28, 1997, and Guangzhou became the fourth city in mainland China to open and operate the subway. As of April 26, 2018, Guangzhou Metro has 13 operating routes, with 391.6 km and 207 stations in total, whose opening mileage ranks third in China and fourth in the world now. As of July 24, 2018, Guangzhou Metro Line Network had transported 1.645 billion passengers safely, with an average daily passenger volume of 802.58 million, an increase of 7.88% over the same period of 2017 (7.4393 million).
