What do you see after the fever of building a new bridge over the Red river?

Abstract

Building a new bridge across the Red River amid epidemics raises the question of whether it will truly revive the real estate market. Behind the debates lies a broader issue: how are the dynamics of urban development being defined? Should investment be prioritized in new bridges or in large-scale transport infrastructure projects? The choice of constructing Tran Hung Dao Bridge according to the principle of integrated, multi-benefit development (such as an underground bridge combined with the regeneration of the stalled railway line near Hanoi Station) deserves reconsideration in order to create new opportunities for Hanoi.
