Hanoi road and opera house development

Overview

In late July 2026 Hanoi publicly displayed the first phase of the Đặng Thai Mai road expansion along the West Lake peninsula, outlining a 93.6 m‑wide corridor, its cost breakdown, and the intended green and cultural amenities, including the new Ngọc Trai opera house. The plan projected land acquisition and resettlement to be finished by June 2026, with early works on trees and sidewalks already under way.

By early August 2026 the city’s People’s Committee chairman inspected the combined road and opera‑house project. Detailed updates showed that compensation and land‑reclamation efforts were progressing: 56 compensation plans covering 8.1 ha had been approved for Phase 1, with additional approvals expected through September, while Phase 2’s investigations were complete and several cases settled. The municipal authorities urged accelerated manpower and machinery deployment while maintaining quality and safety. The overall development, valued at over VND 12,756 billion, had broken ground in October 2025 and featured a 25,000 m² site designed by an Italian architect.
