北京路是广州古代中轴线，拥有悠久的商业传统，保存许多连续的骑楼街。

  规划通过保护现存骑楼、引导开发建设、完善骑楼体系、优化空间结构、疏解旧区人口、提升商业能量等策略，对景观、功能、土地、交通等提出控制和指引，促进骑楼风貌保护与开发建设的和谐共赢。

  本规划的及时出台，控制保护了若干面临拆除重新开发的骑楼街和传统风貌街区。

As the central axis of ancient Guangzhou city, Bei Jing Lu has longstanding commercial tradition with the continuing Qilou buildings.  

The Plan proposes some strategic measures (such as conserving existing Qilou, guiding new development, perfecting the Qilou system, refining spatial structure, relocating the population of old downtown and enhancing the commercial energy) to control and guide the landscape, functions, land and traffic facilities and contribute to the harmony and win-win result of Qilou conservation and development. 

The timely launch of the Plan helps conserve some Qilou and traditional featured blocks that were at the risk of being removed and redeveloped.
