The Department of Housing and Urban-Rural Development of Yunnan Province, along with eight other departments including the Provincial Development and Reform Commission, has jointly issued the "Yunnan Province Action Plan for Promoting New Urban Infrastructure Construction and Building Resilient Cities (2025-2027)". This initiative implements national decisions on promoting high-quality urban development and building resilient cities, aiming to deeply integrate new-generation information technologies with urban infrastructure. The goal is to construct an intelligent and efficient new urban infrastructure system, comprehensively enhancing cities' risk prevention capabilities and modernizing governance levels.
The action plan adheres to technological innovation and digital empowerment, with its core focusing on information platform construction as the driver, intelligent facility construction as the foundation, and smart application scenarios as the support. It systematically promotes the digital transformation and intelligent upgrading of urban infrastructure, continuously strengthening urban resilience across multiple dimensions including facilities, management, and space. The plan specifies that by the end of 2027, significant progress must be made in the province's new urban infrastructure construction, with its supporting role for resilient city development markedly enhanced. It will promote greater transparency in the infrastructure and operational status of cities like Kunming, Qujing, Yuxi, Zhaotong, Baoshan, Anning, Mengzi, Mile, and Tengchong, aiming to build a group of high-level "transparent cities". This effort will form a batch of replicable and promotable experiences, such as the safety engineering construction of Yunnan's urban infrastructure lifelines, ultimately achieving safer, more orderly, smarter, and more efficient urban operations.
The plan delineates 28 key tasks across nine major areas. In promoting the implementation of intelligent municipal infrastructure construction and renovation, it involves systematically surveying the current status of municipal facilities and promoting data sharing via Yunnan's integrated public data platform. Key priorities include accelerating the urban infrastructure lifeline safety engineering project, establishing a provincial-level integrated supervision platform to achieve four-level linkage (national, provincial, prefectural/municipal, county) and cross-departmental coordination. It also calls for installing IoT sensing devices on critical facilities like gas, water supply, drainage, and bridges, building a safety supervision framework characterized by "unified oversight on one screen and unified management via one network".
In promoting the coordinated development of smart city infrastructure and intelligent connected vehicles, plans are in place to deploy vehicle-road cooperative facilities along key roads, constructing a "vehicle-road-cloud" collaborative system. The plan also aims to optimize urban logistics and emergency supply guarantee networks, and continuously advance the construction of smart parking platforms. Regarding the development of smart residential areas, it supports the intelligent renovation of residential communities and encourages the construction of smart property management systems. It guides Qujing City to pilot the construction of community-embedded service facilities, building a "street-community-neighborhood" service system that focuses on improving services for both the elderly and children. To enhance the intelligent management level of building management, the plan calls for establishing a building usage safety management system, promoting the development of digital archives for building safety hazards and a mechanism for their elimination, and coordinating the construction of a provincial-level comprehensive urban building management platform. For digital household initiatives, it emphasizes strengthening the installation of residential information infrastructure, promoting the popularization and interoperability of smart home devices, and advancing the integration of digital household system platforms with government service and social service platforms. In promoting the synergy between intelligent construction and construction industrialization, it aims to cultivate intelligent construction industrial clusters, deepen the application of Building Information Modeling (BIM) technology throughout the entire project lifecycle, and promote the development of smart construction sites.
Concurrently, the plan aims to improve the City Information Modeling (CIM) platform by constructing a provincial-level CIM foundation platform that aggregates various government data to form a three-dimensional urban spatial data base. It will build a "CIM+" smart application system focusing on areas like urban renewal and disaster prevention and reduction. Furthermore, it involves setting up and refining an urban operational management service platform, accelerating its localization, and leveraging the provincial data platform to achieve data sharing with multiple departments, enabling intelligent analysis and comprehensive coordination of urban operational management.
The plan also proposes specific safeguard measures covering areas such as technological empowerment and talent cultivation, innovating market-oriented investment and financing mechanisms, and strengthening platform data sharing and cybersecurity guarantees.
The introduction of this action plan signifies that Yunnan is comprehensively promoting the digital transformation and upgrading of urban infrastructure as a systematic project. It aims to equip cities with a "smart brain" and "sensitive nerves" through technological means, thereby effectively responding to various risks and challenges, and laying a solid urban safety foundation for the province's high-quality and sustainable economic and social development.
