Hanoi Red River urban planning and development

Overview

Hanoi is advancing urban planning and infrastructure development along the Red River. Initial efforts focused on the Red River Landscape Boulevard project, which included community consultations regarding routing and location, alongside adjustments to 1/5,000 scale urban subdivision planning. The project sought extensions for procedural completion and worked toward preliminary agreements on route boundaries to facilitate land clearance. Following these developments, the Hanoi People’s Committee approved a 1/500 scale urban design for a specific 3km corridor spanning Tran Nhat Duat, Tran Quang Khai, and Tran Khanh Du streets. This design, covering approximately 86.72 hectares, aims to establish a Red River landscape axis. The approved plan mandates strict controls on building density and height, specifically prohibiting new high-rise residential buildings except in designated areas for the renovation of old apartment complexes. Building on this framework, the Hanoi Department of Construction has initiated a public consultation process regarding the overall adjustment of the 1/5,000 scale Red River urban subdivision planning. This project covers the section from Hong Ha Bridge to Me So Bridge, spanning approximately 40km and covering 11,418 hectares. The plan aims to transform the riverfront into a central green axis by integrating parks, cultural spaces, and tourism infrastructure, effectively shifting the urban orientation toward the river. The development forecasts a population of 800,000 to 1.2 million people and includes proposals for landmark structures such as a 109-story Era Tower. Recent adjustments to the 1/5,000 scale planning continue to facilitate the development of this landscape boulevard axis. The plan envisions the riverfront as a central ecological, cultural, and economic axis, with high-rise buildings ranging from 30 to 45 stories proposed along the banks. To manage the impact on existing residents, the city has outlined resettlement policies, particularly for those in zones that do not meet flood safety standards.
