Coordinated Development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region

The Coordinated Development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, as part of China’s development strategy, aims at an orderly relocation of all non-essential functions from Beijing, the national capital, to neighboring locations. The move entails adjusting the economic structure and rationalizing space utilization, while exploring a new model of optimized coordinated development in a region with a dense population, to create a new growth pole in the region.

In April 2015, the Political Bureau of the CPC Central Committee approved the Guidelines for Coordinated Development of the Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region, as a top-level planning for the development in this region in a coordinated manner.

The broad region covers Beijing, Tianjin and 11 prefecture-level cities in the neighboring Hebei Province. Environmental protection, integrated transport services, and industrial upgrading and relocation are the three main areas of focus.

Coordinated development is needed in this region in order to resolve issues that have occurred in the development process in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei. It is also needed in order to implement optimized regional planning for national development and a well mapped-out geographical distribution of production capacity.

京津冀協同發展

推動京津冀協同發展是中國的一個重大國家戰略，其核心是有序疏解北京非首都功能，調整經濟結構和空間結構，走出一條內涵集約發展的新路子，探索出一種人口經濟密集地區優化開發的模式，促進區域協調發展，形成新增長極。2015年4月，中央政治局審議通過了《京津冀協同發展規劃綱要》，為推動京津冀協同發展提供了頂層設計。京津冀協同發展的范圍包括北京市、天津市以及河北省的保定等11個地級市，計劃在交通一體化、生態環境保護、產業升級轉移等三大重點領域率先取得突破。京津冀協同發展不僅是解決北京、天津、河北發展面臨的矛盾和問題的需要，而且是優化國家發展區域布局、優化社會生產力空間結構、打造新的經濟增長極、形成新的經濟發展方式的需要。
