On July 4, the Hanoi Department of Construction announced the adjustment of traffic organization for vehicles on Vo Chi Cong Street (which has just had a median strip installed) to ensure traffic safety and overcome traffic congestion in the city.
Scope of lane division:
On Vo Chi Cong Street, it starts from the front of Lane 80 Vo Chi Cong to the front of the road leading to Nhat Tan Bridge and vice versa. Lanes: L = 4,000 m/day.
Laning plan:
- 3 lanes outside the median strip: Organize traffic exclusively for automobiles.
- The remaining 2 lanes on the sidewalk: Organize traffic for mixed-use vehicles (including buses).
- The lanes reserved for cars will be separated from the mixed lanes by a median strip.
Traffic organization plan at the intersections on Vo Chi Cong Street (intersection with Xuan La Street and Nguyen Hoang Ton Street):
- 4 lanes outside the median strip: Vehicles are only allowed to go straight and turn left according to the instructions of the traffic light system (vehicles are prohibited from turning right).
- 2 mixed lanes on the sidewalk: Mixed lane.
+ Motorbikes and bicycles: Follow the instructions of the traffic light system and signs, paint.
+ Vehicles (except buses): Only allowed to turn right.
Traffic organization plan at border clearance strip opening points:
- For vehicles in lane specifically for cars:
+ Vehicles that need to go straight or turn left: Continue to go straight and change direction at the button.
+ Vehicles that need to turn right: Change direction to the mixed lane and turn right at the button.
- For vehicles in the mixed lane:
+ Vehicles that need to go straight or turn left should switch to the lane reserved for cars.
+ Buses, motorbikes, bicycles: Go in the following directions according to the instructions of traffic lights and signs, paint the lines.
Traffic organization plan at the median strip opening point (for alley 182 Vo Chi Cong): Organize exclusively for vehicles turning around.
Prohibit vehicles from parking on the entire Vo Chi Cong route. Prohibit stopping and parking at intersections and ends of the median strip (minimum distance of 50m).
The implementation period starts from July 9, 2025 (Wednesday).
