Abstract

In the context of the modernity of urban development, Suzhou Ganjiang Road, as the main road in the ancient city, has been unable to meet the existing urban needs, and the contradiction between the ancient city’s infrastructure and modern lifestyle has become increasingly prominent. In this paper, Ganjiang Road Leqiao-Caoqiao sections were integrated through planning and architectural design, based on the new urban transport network in order to protect the ancient city and cultural renaissance. By the studies of urban fabric type and morphological and long-term optimization of the urban building space, applying urban design methods to organize dimensional traffic system, new exploration was made on the suture and revival of the ancient city section of Ganjiang Road in Suzhou in the modern context.
