Seminar paper from the year 2003 in the subject Art - Architecture / History of Construction, grade: very good, Technical University of Graz (Faculty for Architekture / Institute City Development), language: English, abstract: The Yangtze River Delta, Shanghai-Nanjing-Hangzhou is undergoing a radical upheavalprocess - the dimension and the speed of Shanghai's development exceeds Europeanthinking.Between 1978 and 1990 about EUR3 billion were spent on urban infrastructure projects, in thenext six years between 1991 and 1997 the investment exceeded EUR18 billion. In the earlyeighties the construction of the whole public mass transport system started from scratch,following the strategic neglecting by the Central Government in Beijing. Today, after thereforms of Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin, a former mayor of Shanghai, it is said that thecity's large construction projects are the PRC Government's 'cuddles'.2002 about 80 urban infrastructure projects with an investment of EUR6,5 billion were underconstruction, supporting AIR TRAFFIC RAIL TRAFFIC ROAD TRAFFIC and SHIPPING.In my opinion the rapid changes in the transport infrastructure will change more than themap of the city or the mere building reality - it will change the city's timescale.Firstly I want to focus on the meaning of the transport issue for China's and Shanghai'seconomy and competitiveness.

On the one hand the improvement of the mass transport infrastructure likethe extension of six further metro lines until 2005 increases the local mobility. Today Shanghai ischaracterized by a high dense core and a low density outside core, such as the comparisonwith London shows. [...]
