In recent years, logistics demands in Jinan have shown clear growth trends. By 2020, Jinan city has proposed that the volume of express deliveries will reach 800 million packages, with revenue reaching 7 billion CNY. As an innovative logistics system, an underground logistics system (ULS) can provide new developmental ideas for urban logistics in Jinan. Although there are no actual cases of ULS construction projects in the world at present, as a first demonstration area driven by innovation in Jinan City, the Jinan Prior Zone for Replacing Old Growth Drivers with New Ones (Jinan Prior Zone) will be the first to attempt its implementation, thus providing an advanced model for sustainable development of urban logistics around the world. Based on the urban master plan of the Jinan Prior Zone, the logistics plan of Jinan city and other urban subject plans, this study proposes ULS planning for the Jinan Prior Zone, including demand forecasting, logistics architecture, planning principles, construction forms, and short/long term construction plan. The ULS planning will provide small batch, high frequency, and high timeliness for express delivery services in the central area of the Daqiao Group in the Jinan Prior Zone. In the long term, it will serve 500,000 people, with an average daily logistics volume of 1300 tons. This study views the introduction of ULS into the Jinan Prior Zone will both improve the efficiency of logistics and reduce the pressure of ground traffic and improve the level of green logistics, which is of great significance for the promotion of high-quality development of urban logistics.
