Abstract
The overall study of the development of the HSR new towns along the Beijing-Shanghai HSR line shows that the location of the HSR station, the economic development stage of the station-located cities themselves and financial capacity affect the development of the areas surrounding the HSR stations. To further explore the factors affecting the HSR new town and its planning, the study selected two HSR new towns with similar conditions but different development results: Wuxi and Changzhou. The study conducted a comparative analysis of their planning and development processes to determine the key factors affecting the results. This section details the planning and development process in the areas surrounding the two HSR stations in Wuxi and Changzhou and shows the changes in and causes of this process.
