According to a comprehensive construction plan of Hongqiao International Hub approved by the State Council, Jiading district is located in the core area of the hub, as well as an important link point in its expansion area.
According to the plan, 463 square kilometers in Jiading district were included in the north-expansion area of the hub. Jiangqiao town in Jiading district was included in Hongqiao Central Business District.
