The Hanoi Department of Transport has just requested the City People's Committee and the Department of Planning and Investment to appraise and submit to competent authorities for approval the investment policy for infrastructure renovation projects and urgent traffic organization at some intersections and routes to reduce congestion.

The project has a total estimated investment of nearly 225 billion VND, sourced from the budget, of which construction costs are more than 188 billion VND; project implementation period is from 2024 - 2027.

The Department of Transport plans to trim sidewalks and median strips at eligible locations on Giang Vo, Lang Ha, Le Van Luong, To Huu, Hoang Dao Thuy, Hoang Minh Giam, and Khuat Duy Tien streets. These are all roads with extremely high traffic density and frequent congestion during rush hour.

In particular, Giang Vo, Lang Ha, Le Van Luong, and To Huu streets are on the BRT bus route, a radial traffic axis, and traffic congestion often occurs.
