In 2023, Anhui Province will implement urban gas pipelines and other aging renovation actions, and complete the renovation of 3,332 kilometres; add 200 new urban "pocket parks" and 500 kilometres of urban greenways; renovate 5,000 dangerous rural houses, and the rate of harmless treatment of rural household waste will reach more than 81%. On February 6, the reporter learned from Anhui Provincial Department of Housing and Construction that Anhui Province will speed up the second phase of urban lifeline safety project in 2023.

Complete the city gas pipeline and other aging renewal 3,332 km

The reporter noted that in 2023, Anhui Province will highlight the urban renewal areaization. The city will implement actions to improve the quality and vitality of urban functions, strengthen the guidance of urban design, promote urban renewal and build a high-quality production, living and ecological space.The city will also optimize the index system of urban physical examination, highlighting areas of public concern such as housing, municipal utilities and public services, and carry out in-depth urban physical examination; Improving the urban renewal policy system, make good use of policy-based development finance tools, and leverage more social capital to participate in urban design, construction and operation.

Accelerating urban renewal and the construction of "ten key projects", continue to promote the national pilot projects in Chuzhou and Tongling and the construction of 16 pilot renewal districts (units) in Shenyang, and create a number of model renewal projects. Strengthen urban waterlogging control, systematically promote the construction of sponge cities in the whole region, with more than 38% of the built-up area meeting the requirements of sponge city construction. Implementing the renovation of ageing city gas pipes, and completing the renovation of 3,332 km. Focusing on the improvement of facilities for "older people and youngster", the construction of complete communities will be promoted.

Over 30% of new construction is planned to be assembled

In 2023, Anhui Province will carry out three major actions, including improving the efficiency of new buildings, reducing carbon in the operation of existing buildings and optimising the energy use structure of buildings, to support cities such as Bozhou, Bengbu, Wuhu, Xuancheng and Tongling to carry out provincial pilot ultra-low energy buildings and pilot low-carbon zones, create a number of regional demonstrations of existing building renovation based on contract energy management, and build a carbon emission monitoring platform. At the same time, we should promote the integration of photovoltaic building energy storage, accelerate the application of geothermal energy and biomass energy according to local conditions, and promote electric heat pump technology such as air source. Vigorously develop assembly-type buildings and green buildings, with the proportion of newly started assembly-type construction area accounting for more than 30% and the proportion of newly completed green construction area accounting for more than 80%.

At the same time, Anhui carried out a special action to test and repair the urban sewage network and the safe disposal of sludge, in order to accelerate the shortcomings of the sewage collection and treatment facilities. Eventually, 400 kilometres of urban sewage networks were renovated, 400,000 tonnes/day of new urban domestic sewage treatment capacity was added, and the ratio of black smelly water bodies in the built-up areas of counties was eliminated to 80%. Anhui Province also comprehensively promoted the province's domestic waste classification, each region to basically build a classification of the drop-off, classification of collection, classification of transport, classification of treatment system. A number of domestic waste incineration facilities and food waste treatment projects have also been accelerated, with a new capacity of 2,200 tonnes each day for domestic waste incineration and 600 tonnes each day for food waste treatment, Which have achieved zero landfill of primary domestic waste and promoted the ecological restoration of domestic waste landfills. In addition, we will strengthen the management of the whole process of construction waste, and comprehensively build resource utilization or disposal sites in cities and counties.

200 new urban "pocket parks" and 500 kilometres of urban greenways will be created this year

In addition, in 2023, Anhui Province will strengthen the construction of urban park systems and greenways, implement urban greening sites in accordance with the requirement of "green plants within 300 metres and parks within 500 metres", and improve the greenway network. It will add 200 "pocket parks" and 500 kilometres of urban greenways, and steadily increase the service radius coverage of urban parks and greening venues. The 14^th China (Hefei) International Garden Expo will be held in a coordinated manner.

Anhui also strives to achieve an annual construction output value of 1.3 trillion yuan, an increase of more than 10% year-on-year. Promote the construction of industrial bases and parks for the assembly construction industry, set up the province's assembly construction industry alliance, build an internet platform for the assembly construction industry, accelerate the development of the whole industry chain and cultivate three 100-billion-dollar industry clusters in the provincial capital, along the river and in northern part of Anhui province.

In addition, we will actively cultivate special-grade qualified enterprises, strive to add 1-2 new construction general contracting special-grade enterprises, and guide enterprises to increase investment in scientific and technological research and development, develop new construction methods, and support Hefei, Fuyang and other cities to carry out pilot demonstrations of intelligent construction.

Improve 5,000 dangerous houses in rural areas, and achieve a harmless treatment rate of 81% or more for rural domestic waste

Anhui Province focused on operating rural self-built houses and carried out in-depth investigation and rectification of rural housing safety hazards. Continue to promote the renovation of dangerous rural houses and seismic renovation of agricultural houses, renovate 5,000 dangerous rural houses, and also improve the long-term mechanism of housing safety protection for rural low-income groups.At the same time, Anhui Province has also promoted the construction of modern livable farm houses, implemented the design of rural areas, strengthened the construction of supporting facilities for farm houses, and enhanced the control of farm house style. Promote new safe and reliable construction methods such as assembled steel structures according to local conditions, and encourage the construction of green farmhouses.

Anhui Province co-ordinates the treatment of rural domestic waste in counties, improves the quality and effectiveness of rural domestic waste treatment, strictly prevents the creation of new informal domestic waste dumping sites, and creates a clean, neat and orderly village environment. The rate of harmless treatment of rural domestic waste reached over 81%. At the same time, Anhui Province supported Huangshan to declare itself as a national historical and cultural city. A comprehensive system for listing and protecting traditional villages was established, strengthening the management of the protection and use of traditional villages, and promoting the protection of concentrated contiguous areas. It is also necessary to establish a mechanism for the pre-protection of historical culture, to prohibit large-scale demolition and construction in urban regeneration, and to prevent the arbitrary demolition of old buildings and ancient dwellings that have conservation value.

In addition, it is necessary to study and explore three mechanisms for housing health check-ups, pensions and insurance, in order to provide safety protection for the whole life cycle of housing. The second phase of the Urban Lifeline Safety Project should be accelerated and the application scenarios should be expanded to include gas customers and lifts, fire-fighting, manhole covers, water environment and integrated pipelines. Promote the extension of the urban lifeline project to counties and accelerate the creation of an "Anhui model" of urban safety development.
