Transit-oriented masterplan for Ningbo Hub South Area development revealed

Chapman Taylor has developed the concept masterplan for the Ningbo Hub South transit-oriented development (TOD), a 1,270-hectare urban development designed to integrate transportation, city life, and industry into a future-proofed air-rail hub.

The project aims to connect Ningbo’s rail and air transport infrastructure seamlessly while enhancing urban livability, economic growth, and cultural identity.

The key objectives include:

  • Integrating transportation with the urban environment to maximize efficiency and value
  • Coordinating industrial planning to drive innovation and economic development
  • Creating a diverse and dynamic urban ecosystem, blending commercial, residential, and cultural spaces
  • Enhancing international competitiveness through smart, adaptive urban design

A high-impact industrial and innovation hub

The “3+1+1” industrial system will position the Ningbo Hub South Area as a leading economic gateway, focusing on:

  • Technological innovation clusters
  • Supply chain acceleration
  • High-end service hubs
  • Integrated urban landscapes
  • People-centric, sustainable design

A landmark development for Ningbo’s Future

By establishing new urban landmarks, multi-functional districts, and high-quality public spaces, the masterplan ensures that Ningbo Hub South will serve as an international exchange innovation port and a gateway to the future of integrated transportation and urban development.
