     Rednet (Changsha): Riding a bike on a new cycleway at the dusk of summer is a cozy enjoyment for urban people. According to Bureau of Parks and Woods of Yuelu Area, more cycleways will be built in Changsha including one on schedule along Jinxing Avenue which is one of the main roads of the area; meanwhile, the construction work of a colorful cycleway is finished in Binjiang Park along the road from Houzishi Bridge to Xiangfu Road Bridge.

     The twenty-meter-width greenbelts of both sides of Jinxing Avenue are planned to be transformed into a sandwich-structural ecological belt which is made up of a sidewalk of two to three-meter width, a professional cycleway of two to five-meter width and a green land or a garden in between. These cycleways and sidewalks lead to plazas and parks.
