According to the urban texture of Hsinchu City(新竹市), the scope of this plan is defined by the urban area surrounded by Jingguo Road(經國路), Ziyou Road(自由路), Xida Road(西大路), Dongda Road(東大路), Guangfu Road(光復路), and Xuefu Road(學府路), the connection of the front and back of Hsinchu Station, and the surrounding main streets. The plan’s primary purpose is to improve the accessibility of arcades, schools, and sidewalks within the urban area, repair breakpoints, smooth passages, and increase pedestrian space, in order to improve the urban traffic through urban planning and traffic management. To construct a more friendly, intelligent, and aesthetic city, this plan cooperates with the "Heart of Town" Plan of the Construction and Planning Agency of the Ministry of the Interior to make overall improvements to the function of the city, activate key nodes, and make the whole living space of Hsinchu City(新竹市) more diversified and suitable for human-oriented living through the five main construction pillars of "improvement of parking problem," "creation of recreational sports environment," " construction of cultural life circle," "improvement of road quality," and "integration of public service points."

With the core of Hsinchu(新竹) old city as the planning base and the six old city nodes of the green path, Longenzun(隆恩圳), moat, Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟), East Gate Town, Hsinchu Park(新竹公園) City Hall Square, and Tingfuzun(汀甫圳), as well asblue-green axis belts as the key areas for improvement, Hsinchu(新竹) old city is expected to create a unique urban aesthetic and to continue to improve pedestrian space highlights in Hsinchu City(新竹市).

• Improvement of pedestrian space of Longenzun(隆恩圳) and green path: This project is located in the area among Jingguo Road(經國路), the green path in the eastern section of Longenzun(隆恩圳), and surrounded byMinzhu Road and Ziyou Road(自由路), including Sanmin Junior High School(三民國中) and the fruit and vegetable market, which is a busy place for daily grocery shopping and school access; the surrounding space is available for planning pedestrian and path pavement improvement and the simultaneous improvement of adjacent parks.Therefore, improvements in this area include: a. pedestrian path around Sanmin Park(三民公園);b. pedestrian path on the sides of Jingguo Road(經國路), Minzhu Road(民主路), and Ziyou Road(自由路).


• Improvement of pedestrian space of Longenzun(隆恩圳) and moat: On the banks of the completed moat and Longenzun(隆恩圳) under construction, the area of East Gate Elementary School(東門國小) is the second ecological life block breakpoint, and the improvement of pedestrian space in this area will not only complete the pedestrian space surrounding the ecological life block, but also serve as a connecting point for the moat and historical and cultural block, so improvements in this area include: a. Longenzun(隆恩圳) western section surrounding environmental greening project;b. connecting Longenzun(隆恩圳) with the moat pedestrian path and improving the pedestrian space in the East Gate Elementary School(東門國小) alley.


• Improvement of Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟)’s surrounding environment: The well-known Hsinchu(新竹) Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟) and its nearby local snacks are well-known by both residents and visitors for good taste, but with increasing crowds and traffic jams, pedestrians and vehicles have begun to compete in this region.Although Triangle Square was planned, it has not been properly used; if it is improved along with the pedestrian space and connects the adjacent parks and green spaces, it can moderately guide people to stay within the park surrounding Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟); therefore, the following improvements were proposed: a. Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟) Triangle Square reconstruction project (including night lighting of Chenghuang Temple(城隍廟));b. pedestrian space improvement project around Zhongshan Road(中山路) and Dongmen Street(東門街).


• Environment improvement project of East Gate Town Ring: In 1999, with the image of the "Heart of Hsinchu(新竹)," the Municipal Government built East Gate Town Ring to "East Gate Town Square," a space with historical significance and leisure functions, to showcase its historical and innovative features. Currently, some old facilities need to be replaced and updated, and the circular pedestrian path is old and damaged. By implementing this plan, the existing use space and facilities can hopefully be optimized, and the circular pedestrian space will be improved in order to make Hsinchu(新竹) an attractive tourist city.Improvements shall include:a. renovation project of East Gate Town Square (including reconstruction of square structure);b. pedestrian space improvement project in front of railway station square;c. overall improvement of pedestrian and bicycle paths and lanes outside the East Gate Town Ring;d.
