In recent years, Ningxiang City has scientifically and orderly promoted the renovation of old urban communities, greatly improving the quality of living. 

From 2019 to 2020, Ningxiang City has completed the renovation of 26 old communities with 1,415 households. 7 of the 52 projects launched in 2021 have been completed, and more than 90% of the construction of the remaining projects has been completed.

This year, 40 old communities will be renovated. All of the construction contracts have been signed and the construction will start in the near future.

Walking into the Lishui Jiayuan Community, you will see the smooth and clean roads repaved with asphalt. In the newly established fitness square in the community, some elderly residents were seen doing exercises. In the past, they had to walk a long way to find a place to do sports. Now they can exercise in their own community.

Lishui Jiayuan Community was built in the 1990s and is located in the flood-prone area of the Weijiang River. Before the renovation, the community faced problems such as disorderly parking, easy accumulation of water and poor environment, which influenced the life of residents seriously.

In the renovation of old communities last year, Baimaqiao Subdistrict, centered on the Lishui Jiayuan, carried out renovation with the surrounding areas, demolished the walls of the community, and integrated the vacant land with the surrounding vegetable fields and roads, building a public parking lot with nearly 30 parking spaces added and setting up a pocket park of 2,100 square meters. 

At the same time, the rain and sewage diversion was implemented in the community. The new underground pipe network was excavated to connect to the main pipes, and the underground pipe network in the surrounding residential areas was successively renovated.

Since this year, 40 old communities in the renovation plan of Ningxiang City have completed four rounds of approval of renovation plans in May. The local authorities should focus on resolving the most urgent problems, make every effort to increase  greening areas and improve public services to meet the needs of residents for renovation.

In addition, in 2023, Ningxiang City will also apply for 19 old community renovation projects, including 792 households and 38 buildings, with an area of 70,500 square meters. These old communities, mainly located in Yutan Subdistrict, were all built before 2000.
