After ten years of merging and administrative-boundary expansion, Hanoi has changed dramatically in its economic growth, appearance and infrastructure. A new Hanoi, with open spaces, has created conditions for the city to plan space in the direction of sustainable development.
Over the past ten years, the city has mobilised all of its resources to carry out planning and investment in building technical infrastructure in order to expand the urban space and create a flourishing appearance for the city, towards making Hanoi a great capital city in the region and the world.
Many important transport infrastructures have been invested in such as Lang – Hoa Lac Highway, National Road 32, and Ring Road 3.
Le Van Luong Route, one of the important transport roads connecting the western region with the centre of Hanoi.
Urban space has been expanded in many directions, with the construction of modern, synchronous and complete social and technical infrastructures, such as Van Quan, My Dinh, Mo Lao and An Khanh in western city.
The Viet Hung and Vinhome Riverside urban areas in the eastern part of the city, and Linh Dam, Gamuda in the southern part of the city.
A series of new bridges are being built to connect suburban areas such as Nhat Tan Bridge, Thanh Tri Bridge, and Vinh Tuy Bridge.
Cat Linh – Ha Dong urban railway is gradually completed.
Hoa Binh (Peace) Park was built to create a “green lung” for the city.
