The design of the thoroughfare highlights the concept of a "Sponge City". In addition to sunken greenbelts and rainwater gardens, its sidewalks and non-motorized vehicle lanes are paved with pervious concrete. The control rate of annual storm water runoff is now 70 percent.
Construction of the Chuangxin Avenue adopts a great deal of advanced technology such as building information modeling, which is a holistic process of creating and managing information for a built asset. The technology allows the builder to avoid potential pipeline collision and complete construction in a shorter period of time.
