The Yangtze River Delta is aiming for greener development and closer integration of its cities, as stipulated in a government blueprint released on Tuesday.
The National Development and Reform Commission issued a master plan for an eco-friendly, integrated development of the Yangtze River Delta.
The 2,300-square-kilometer demonstration zone – Shanghai’s Qingpu district; Suzhou’s Wujiang district in Jiangsu province; and Jiaxing’s Jiashan county in Zhejiang province – sits in the middle of the delta.
