A reasonable greenway route layout is key to implementing greenway planning effectively. Focusing on Taiyuan, the minimum cumulative resistance model method evaluated the ecological suitability and accessibility of greenway construction in the area. Key areas and potential lines for greenway construction were identified using GIS spatial analysis technology, leading to the selection of parametric greenway lines. Additionally, based on field circumstances, the line selection results were optimized and adjusted to finalize the structural layout of municipal and community-level greenways in Taiyuan. The results indicate that: (1) The selected greenway routes exhibit a distribution pattern of “one horizontal, two vertical, and three rings" in the overall study area, with "one ring, one vein, and two horizontal" in the central urban area. (2) Six municipal greenways (totaling 695.2 km) and four community greenways (totaling 130 km) were initially identified. (3) In the six municipal greenways, while some sections of the Fenhe River East to West Landscape Greenway are not feasible, the other five greenways show high feasibility. All four community-level greenways demonstrate high feasibility. These research findings can serve as a reference for future route selection planning of the greenway in Taiyuan.
