摘要
Urban park green spaces (PGSs) are crucial social public resources that provide various ecological services and enhance human health and well-being. However, with the acceleration of urbanization, the accessibility and equity of urban PGS resources are increasingly threatened. This study aims to propose an integrated framework that considers accessibility and equity simultaneously to optimize the planning and layout of urban PGS within the high-speed ring road of Hefei City. This study first used an improved two-step floating catchment area (2SFCA) method to quantify the level of accessibility of urban PGS within the ring road. Then, with the use of Lorenz curves, Gini coefficients, and bivariate correlation coefficients, the equity characteristics of these PGSs were quantified and evaluated, followed by an analysis of their relationships to the accessibility levels. Based on this comprehensive evaluation, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm was employed to the areas with low accessibility and equity levels to propose targeted PGS optimization strategies. The results showed that the accessibility of PGS was unevenly distributed, exhibiting a clear spatial difference of “east–west clustering”. The number of subdistricts with good (52.24–94.78) and best (94.79–283.58) accessibility was four, which was less than one-tenth of the total number of subdistricts in the study area. At the subdistrict level, the Gini coefficients for the accessible area of all types of PGSs were substantially higher than the international warning line of 0.4, indicating a substantial inequity in the population’s access to PGS. The implemented PSO algorithm resulted in eight new parks being planned at the specific optimized locations. Based on the actual land use status of the selected sites, recommendations are provided for the planning and layout of PGS. This proposed framework offers valuable data and theoretical insights for urban public green space planning and design in similar regions.
