since 1996，China’s urbanization has entered a period of rapid promotion，in which urbanization rate increased 1.25 percentage points per year and 0.9 percentage point from 2006 to 2009. In contrast，the improvement in the quality of urbanization seems slower and hence urbanization speed and quality appear significant uncoordinated. At present，China’s urbanization has shown the typical characteristics of incomplete urbanization，the urbanization in statistics overestimated. In the “11th five-year plan” period，China’s urban development has made great achievements：city sizes have expanded rapidly，central cities’ statuses have been highlighted significantly；urban infrastructure has improved continuously，investment and financing channels have become more diversified；urban economic strength has increased markedly，the industrial structure has been optimized further；urban living environment has improved significantly，construction and management level has lifted rapidly；urban social undertakings have developed vigorously，the construction of harmonious cities has taken new steps. However，as the imperfections of system and policy，the current development of cities still has many problems，such as a mismatch between urban land expansion and population growth，a serious imbalance development between urban and rural areas as well as among regions，a widening income gap and a intensifying residential differentiation，a variety of urban social problems becoming more and more apparent，the disorder of urban spatial development becoming serious，the expansion problem of big cities waiting for urgent solving and so on. During “12th five-year plan” period，China will enter a new stage of double transitions of urbanization and urban development. Urbanization is expected to increase by 0.8 percentage points annually，and then reach 52% by 2015 and 65% by 2030. To this end，we must pay equal attention to both speed and quality of urbanization，accelerate the process of full urbanization，focus on improving the quality of urbanization，accelerate the urban transition and upgrading and promote urban scientific development. In a word，we must take the road of new type of urbanization with Chinese characteristics.
