Abstract:

The authors considered that the growth of urban system structure in Jiangjin City is at polarizing stage, according to the urban system ranksize structure, and that the inner city would be the growth pole in future. Secondly, the distance between towns by using Arcgis 8.3 was measured out, and this paper suggested that the city would congregate in the two main traffic lines, which would form the development axis of the city in the future. Thirdly, the urban function structure was qualitatively analyzed. Finally, according to the present situation and future development of the urban system, some ideals in optimizing urban system structure and development routes were put forward, and then some referenced bases for the development of the city in the future were pointed out.

Key words: urban system structure, city development, Jiangjin City
