Abstract:With the improvement of urbanization level and continuous expansion of urban space scale in China, many urban space structures have evolved into banded cluster cities. Fewer axial traffic trunks, severe traffic congestion, and lack of large and medium-sized public transport have become important problems which puzzle urban traffic operation and hinder urban development. This paper focuses on sorting out the development history and traffic characteristics of banded group cities, and points out the key contents and solutions that need to be considered in urban expressway network planning of similar cities.
