  • Emerging Development-Based Land Value Capture Practices in Developing Countries
    PART III Emerging Development-Based Land Value Capture Practices in Developing Countries 159 CHAPTER 6 Financing a Metro with Development Rights of Public Land, Nanchang, China China’s public sales of development rights are a major funding source for local governments in delivering infrastructure projects. These sales have often led to the rapid conversion of rural agriculture land into urban land for industrial and residential uses but without an adequate economic ratio- nale or planning. With increased concern over the negative impacts of such rural–urban land conversion, policymakers in reform-oriented cities have already started taking longer-term approaches in public sales of develop- ment rights, focusing on sustainable finances and urban development. Nanchang is one of these cities. Its public land leasing scheme attempts to incorporate the principles of transit-oriented development (TOD) into new metro finance. As this scheme has not yet been fully implemented, it is too early to assess whether it will generate the desired outcomes. If success- fully executed, however, Nanchang’s development-based land value cap- ture (LVC) schemes could provide a good model for other Chinese cities. Urban Development Context Population and Urbanization Trends Nanchang’s central location in southeastern China relative to the Pearl River and Yangtze Delta regions, and to the junctions of major high- ways, makes it a major transport hub (map 6.1). The provincial capital, Nanchang is also a regional center for agricultural production in Jiangxi province. The city has many manufacturing firms including those produc- ing cotton textiles and yarn, paper products, processed food, agricultural chemicals and insecticides, and Chinese medicine and other pharmaceuti- cals.

  • Contribution of Public Transportation to Urban Social Development-Taking Nanchang City As an Example Yunqiang Xue*, Wenlong Li, Dilong Zhang
    Advances in Social Science, Education and Humanities Research, volume 500 Proceedings of the Second International Symposium on Management and Social Sciences (ISMSS 2020) Contribution of Public Transportation to Urban Social Development-Taking Nanchang City as an Example Yunqiang Xue*, Wenlong Li, Dilong Zhang School of Transportation and Logistics, East China Jiaotong University, Nanchang, China *Corresponding author. Email: xueyunqiang@ecjtu. edu. cn ABSTRACT As an important part of urban transportation, public transportation is vital to the development of cities and society. Taking Nanchang as an example, this paper analyzes the four aspects of urban residents' travel, energy and land resources, traffic congestion and traffic safety, and studies the contribution of public transportation to urban social development. Public transportation facilitates the travel of urban residents, saves energy and land resources, effectively alleviates the problem of urban congestion and reduces the occurrence of traffic safety accidents, and makes a positive contribution to the sustainable development of urban society. Finally, the prospects and suggestions for the development of urban public transportation in the future are put forward. It is necessary to continue to improve the public transportation system to achieve sustainable green development. Keywords: public transportation, social development, contribution. 1. INTRODUCTION reducing the energy consumption and carbon dioxide emissions of road transportation. Miller et al. [7] With the development of society, the urban presents a critical literature review of the relationship population and the number of motor vehicles are between public transportation and sustainability. Taking growing rapidly. Urban public transport plays an Nanchang City as an example, this paper studies the increasingly important role in the development of the contribution of public transport to urban social city.
