Hanoi to manage nearly 9km of Hanoi - Thai Nguyen expressway

The Ministry of Construction is transferring management of a nearly 9km section of the Hanoi - Thai Nguyen expressway to the Hanoi People's Committee. This segment, spanning from Km0+000 to Km8+772.76, is being renovated and expanded to connect with Gia Binh International Airport.

The transfer aims to unify management, operation, and maintenance. Officials noted that if the segment remained under the Ministry of Construction while the rest of the connecting road fell under Hanoi's jurisdiction, it could create difficulties in traffic organization, intelligent transport systems (ITS) management, and accident response.

The Vietnam Road Administration is responsible for proposing the transfer and handling related asset documentation. The handover process must ensure that maintenance and operations remain continuous and uninterrupted.
