Abstract

In order to speed up the construction of green transportation system and promote the development of new forms of tourism service and service areas, Yongning Service Area of Huadu-Dongguan Expressway has created a green service area of highway with forest as the landscape theme, which provides a place for drivers and passengers with varied landscape, integrating functions like rest, recreation, health preservation and cultural exchange. Through the analysis of laws and regulations, the investigation of local plants, and science-based landscape planning and vegetation selection and configuration, Yongning Service Area optimized the planning layout, increased three-dimensional greening and took other measures to improve the greening area. As a result, the greening coverage rate of Yongning Service Area reached 40.5%, the canopy density reached more than 0.3, and the proportion of arbor vegetation reached above 70%. All the indicators of the design scheme were above the planning requirements, and the Service Area is rich in native plant species, with distinct hierarchical structure, inter-specific structure and seasonal changes. At the same time, the Service Area has actively implemented the concept of intelligent service and the construction of low-carbon and energy-saving system, in an effort to realize the sustainable and green development of the Service Area.
