The Light of the Asian Games · Benefiting the People Chapter | Building a "Fitness Circle" at Home for Everyone to Share the dividends of the Asian Games
Taking the Asian Games as an opportunity to promote the nationwide fitness craze, various regions in Zhejiang province make full use of urban and rural river green spaces and bridge spaces, promote the construction of embedded sports venues, and make every corner of the land a "fitness venue" that benefits the people.
This is the Shide overpass that connects Hangzhou Qiushi Elevated Road and Desheng Expressway. The traffic on the bridge is bustling, and there is a unique world under the bridge. This colorful basketball park is a great place for nearby residents to relax and exercise.
Mr. Yue, a citizen of Hangzhou: After dinner, I will come for a run and bring the children to play ball. It's quite beautiful.
Mr. Feng, a citizen of Hangzhou: The renovation has been very good. This site is quite large and now it is relatively clean.
Before the renovation, this was a project site overgrown with weeds. The renovated basketball park covers an area of over 20000 square meters, consisting of a basketball court, a mixed volleyball and badminton court, and a five player football field. Not only can players play, but there are also many convenient facilities.
Wang Tianfu, the person in charge of the basketball park of Hangzhou Road and Bridge Group Co., Ltd.: Citizens can not only play basketball here, but also rest, read, drink water, and charge. The two parking lots have 150 parking spaces, which is truly a measure to benefit the people.
To better utilize urban space, the Hangzhou urban management department took the opportunity of hosting the Asian Games to carry out the construction of embedded sports venues throughout the city. As of now, 10 public welfare sports stadiums have been built.
Wan Luo, the head of the Bridge and Beam Department of the Municipal Center of Hangzhou Urban Management Bureau, said: "By utilizing the space resources under the bridges in these cities, we can create some sports facilities, making it convenient for the people to exercise here. The people can still benefit from some of our projects to welcome the Asian Games.".
In Jinhua, the South Bus Station in the city center has transformed into a sports center with over 10 events, including football, basketball, badminton, golf, and rock climbing. Since its opening in June this year, hundreds of villagers have come to exercise every day at the National Fitness Square in Tongqiao Village, Xiakou Town, Jiangshan City.
Zhu Jianxing, a villager from Tongqiao Village, Xiakou Town, Jiangshan City: I feel like it's built very well. After dinner, we can exercise a bit, and children have more activity space.
Zhu Jun, Director of the Group Department of Jiangshan Sports Bureau: Communities should strive to meet the requirements of a "10 minute fitness circle", and administrative villages should achieve high-quality coverage of all fitness facilities.
