Group 1 - The core viewpoint emphasizes the need for enhanced coordination between transportation infrastructure planning and national spatial planning, as well as ecological environment management systems to promote high-quality development and ecological protection [1][2][3] Group 2 - The article highlights the significant area designated as ecological protection red lines, approximately 3.19 million square kilometers, with over 30% of the land area being affected, which poses challenges for transportation infrastructure planning [2] - By 2035, the demand for national highway construction and renovation is projected to be around 58,000 kilometers for expressways and 110,000 kilometers for ordinary national roads, with some routes inevitably crossing ecological protection areas [2][3] - The establishment of an ecological environment zoning control system aims to facilitate high-level ecological protection and high-quality transportation development, with a goal to have a comprehensive control system in place by 2035 [3][4] Group 3 - Recommendations for strengthening the connection between transportation infrastructure planning and ecological management include enhancing inter-departmental collaboration, optimizing site selection to avoid ecological sensitive areas, and implementing green construction practices throughout the infrastructure lifecycle [5][6] - The article suggests that transportation projects should prioritize low-impact development techniques and comply with environmental regulations, especially in sensitive ecological zones [5][6] - A monitoring and evaluation mechanism for planning implementation is proposed to ensure that ecological protection goals are met and to provide data support for future planning adjustments [6]
