The Xiongan New Area will serve as a test case for urban planning concepts moving forward. The best urban planners from around the world are being consulted to ensure the new city is as smart and green as possible.

雄安新区将成为进一步推行城市规划的试验案例。中国邀请了全球最好的城市规划者们提出建议，确保雄安新区更加智能和环保。

"They want to use new urban planning principles including small roads and small districts, energy self-sufficiency, mixed-use areas balancing homes and jobs, multimodal transportation, said Liu Daizong, China transport program director at the World Resources Institute.

世界资源研究所中国运输项目主管刘代宗（音）说：“中国希望使用新的城市规划原则，包括小路和小区域、能源自给、平衡住宅和办公场所的多功能区以及综合运输等。”

"They also have some ideas to focus on smart city technology and on integrating future innovation, such as driverless cars, and there are plans for 'complete streets' that make space for pedestrians, bikes and buses. The Xiongan New Area is very close to Lake Baiyangdian, so urban planners want to use sponge city technology to handle water runoff. They plan to have a 15-minute life cycle－meaning that residents can find everything they need for their daily lives within a 15-minute bike ride."

“中国还想利用智能城市技术并结合未来创新打造雄安新区，比如无人驾驶汽车，还计划修建为行人、自行车和公交车让出空间的‘完整街道’。雄安新区毗邻白洋淀，所以城市规划者想使用海绵城市技术解决水流失。他们计划打造15分钟生活圈，也就是居民可以在骑行15分钟的区域内找到各种生活所需。”
