Hanoi is planning a Red River urbanization project that will demarcate eight riverbank sections for development, six of them with low density construction.
The six sections will have a construction rate of 5 to 15% while the remaining two will be designated for "open space" developments like parks, squares and other agro-ecological spaces.
The project will build new, modern urban areas, high-quality ecological houses and urban public works serving residents on both sides of the river and the city as a whole. All construction and other work will be designed to withstand flooding.
