Abstract:The municipal road is an essential component of the hardening of underlying surfaces during urban development and construction, and is one of the main subjects of sponge city construction. Municipal roads are divided into four grades such as expressways, arterial roads, secondary roads and branch roads. The planning characteristics of roads at all levels vary. The general construction guidelines are hard to guide the differential design of the sponge city construction planning. Starting from the practice of sponge city construction in Zhuhai, analyzing the planning and design methods of various grades of sponge city demonstration roads, such as Zhuhai Avenue, East Airport Road, Jinhu Avenue and Jinfei Road, the strategies for the construction of sponge cities for municipal roads are summarized and concluded, which provides the replicable and promotable references for the construction of sponge cities for municipal roads in China.
