River walkways upgraded for tourists and citizens
FLYING kites and fishing will be banned from Shanghai’s newly opened Huangpu River waterfront paths as part of efforts to improve their allure.
The walking, running and cycling paths will also be separated by barriers to ensure the safety of pedestrians and cyclists. Specialized sections will be set up for skating, dancing and walking pets.
Xuhui, Hongkou, Huangpu and Yangpu districts as well as the Pudong New Area jointly released the regulations. They will help develop the downtown waterfront into a new landmark to lure tourists and citizens, especially during the upcoming China International Import Expo.
The regulations were released during a ceremony at Tank Shanghai, an art park in Xuhui developed around five huge oil tanks built by China National Aviation Fuel around 1910.
The ceremony also listed the downtown waterfront region as the city’s “civilization demonstration belts.”
