Blueprint coming for coordinated infrastructure of Beijing, Tianjin, Hebei

A detailed plan for the coordinated development of Beijing and two adjacent regions is in the making, with significant reform initiatives on the horizon, an official from China's top economic planning agency said on Wednesday.

The coordinated development of Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei province gained momentum after President Xi Jinping envisioned the grand strategy in late February.

The plan will raise "important reform initiatives" and specific support measures in terms of fiscal policy, as well as the industrial, investment, population, social security, environment and land areas, Fan Hengshan, vice-general-secretary of the National Development and Reform Commission, told a news conference.
