Gao Zhidan, director of the General Administration of Sport, said at a State Council Information Office briefing the government will continue to expand sports venues during the '15th Five-Year' period and improve the national fitness public-service system. Targets include roughly 4 sqm of sports-venue space per capita and about a 40% regular-exercise participation rate by 2030. The plan calls for building or renovating more than 5,000 small/micro sports parks, small fitness centres, multi-use sports fields and public ice rinks.
