It is reported that the project lasted for two years, continuously optimizing design, aligning with international and national standards, and implementing refined construction. The most noticeable change is on Wuzhong Road in Qibao. Donghua University's unique six-character policy, three-line system, and standardized, intelligent, digital, and ecological system design innovation model have given Wuzhong Road a completely new look, resembling an international urban boulevard. The success of the pilot not only brought a beautiful transformation to Qibao Town but also provided new ideas and methods for urban renewal and beautiful town construction in China. Our school will continue to play a demonstrative and leading role in the field of urban renewal, offering more Donghua solutions for the construction of a Beautiful China.
