rail transit;  land use;  Coordinated development

Based on the analysis of the planning and land use status of rail transit network in Changsha, the experience of cities with relatively successful urban rail transit development is learned. Adhering to the principle of synchronous planning and sustainable development of rail transit and land use, the principles that should be followed in the coordinated development of rail transit and sustainable land use in Changsha and the selection of the relationship mode between rail transit and sustainable land use in Changsha are put forward. Through the above analysis, it is decided to take the rail transit construction as an opportunity to further guide the transformation of Changsha’s land use policy, and finally achieve the purpose of harmonious integration of rail transit and land use in Changsha.
