Li Hongbin, deputy secretary and director of the Party Group of the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department of the Xinjiang Autonomous Region, introduced that in 2022, Xinjiang will steadily advance the transformation of old urban communities. It will give priority to old urban communities with a large number of retired workers, a high proportion of elderly people, substandard pension facilities, many problems left over from history, and many contradictions and difficulties.

At the same time, the Housing and Urban-Rural Development Department of Xinjiang Autonomous Region has strengthened the supervision of the design, construction, supervision and acceptance of old residential areas. Strengthen demonstration and drive, and successfully create a number of demonstration model projects, which provide lessons for reference in the preparation of planning and design of improvement and transformation in various places.
