- There are 11 cross-regional ecological corridors, utilizing high-quality ecological resources such as Meixi Lake, Beishan Forest Wetland Park, Xiangbiwo Forest Wetland Park, and the Luoxiao Mountain Range. Urban-level ecological corridors are planned on the outskirts of the metropolitan area, relying on composite traffic corridors to form a green ring around the metropolitan area and wedge-shaped ecological green rings. This connects the highly concentrated Chang-Zhu-Tan main urban area with the loosely distributed town groups on the periphery. Between the town groups, radial green wedges are used as isolation to form a “green wedge + green ring” cross-regional ecological spatial network with a ring and radial pattern.

- There are 12 internal metropolitan area ecological corridors, utilizing high-quality ecological resources such as the Xiangjiang River and its scenic belt, the Da Wangshan Scenic Area, the Chang-Zhu-Tan Green Heart Ecological Protection Zone, as well as the “potential” ecological patches excavated by previous studies. Ecological corridors are planned within the metropolitan area. The three urban functional centers of Changsha, Zhuzhou, and Xiangtan are connected by a network of traffic corridors such as Furong Road, Xiaoxiang Road, Beijing-Hong Kong-Macao Expressway, Chang-Tan West Expressway, and Shanghai-Kunming Expressway, and are distributed along the Xiangjiang River. In the center is the “Green Heart” ecological protection area connected by ecological conservation green belts. The functional centers are interwoven with the ecological green heart, and the functional centers are separated by ecological green belts, forming an internal “Green Heart + Green Belt” ecological space network pattern of the metropolitan area with a belt and grid chessboard layout.

- Thirty district-level characteristic ecological corridors can integrate and connect micro-level urban ecological points such as parks, community green spaces, and ancillary green spaces, “making the small into the large” to construct a diversified and multi-level composite ecological information network, transforming “islands” into a “network”. For example, by utilizing elements such as Yuhu Park in Yuhu District of Xiangtan City, Jiuhua Lake China Virtue Culture Park, Jinxia Mountain Forest Park, and Wanfeng Lake Wetland Park, the district-level ecological space corridors numbered 44, 38, and 42 can be integrated and upgraded, thereby incorporating them into the internal metropolitan area ecological corridor network.
