Activating the potential of the land "forgotten" next to the historic river
The project is proposed in the context that Hanoi is implementing the Red River Urban Zoning Plan - the section from Hong Ha bridge to Me So bridge, stretching nearly 40km, passing through 13 districts and 55 wards and communes.
This is an area of special geographical, cultural and potential value for urban landscape development, but has long been like a "forgotten land" due to the lack of synchronous infrastructure, degraded landscape and unaperfected public space along the river.
Based on field surveys and analysis of the transportation, terrain and ecological systems, the Van Phu - Deo Ca consortium proposed to form a " strategic backbone" that not only helps connect transport infrastructure, but also plays a role in connecting urban flows, breathing new life into the entire riverside area.
The Boulevard is not only a traffic route connecting Hanoi with Hung Yen and Phu Tho, but also a vibrant cultural ecological corridor, organized with a system of terraced parks, walking paths, riverside squares, service - tourism complexes and community spaces. More importantly, this will be a place where people can approach the river closely, safely and inspiringly as an indispensable part of their daily lives.
International learning creates the largest public space in the capital
Before completing the proposal, the joint venture organized a field survey trip in Chongqing (China) - a place with experience in developing a large-scale Truong Giang riverside route. From lessons on organizing multi-layered space, integrating parks - traffic - water surfaces and community culture, Van Phu - Deo Ca hopes to flexibly apply them to Hanoi's reality.
The project aims to form the largest public space in the capital - an extended, multi-layered landscape, integrating transportation, trees, regulated water surface and symbolic works inspired by the Thang Long - Red River culture. It is expected that the festival will combine many types of transportation (mechanical vehicles, trains, inland waterway wharves), underground parking lots, energy-saving works and urban ecosystems adapting to climate change.
This is not only a transportation project, but an urban "experience axis" - where residents can stroll along the river, cycle, organize festivals, or simply enjoy nature in the heart of the city. And for the first time, the Red River will be brought back to urban life in a modern way that is still rich in emotions.
resonance of capacity - Towards an urban symbol bearing the mark of Vietnam
It is no coincidence that Hanoi chose Van Phu - Deo Ca as a project proposal consortium. These are two leading enterprises, representing innovative thinking and practical implementation capacity in both the field of urban development and large-scale technical infrastructure.
With more than 20 years of experience in the real estate sector, Van Phu is a prominent brand through a series of unique projects such as Van Phu - Ha Dong, Grandeur Palace - Giang Vo, Vlasta - Sam Son, Vlasta - Thuy Nguyen... Van Phu does not build houses simply but pursues the philosophy of "residential real estate for humanity" focusing on researching human factors, culture and identity to apply to the product and is also the main spirit in the Red River Boulevard project.
Meanwhile, Deo Ca Group is a leading name in the field of transport infrastructure, with a philosophy of thinking differently - creating distances with impressions in key national projects such as Ca Pass tunnel, Hai Van tunnel, Cam Lam - Vinh Hao expressway... Not only possessing strong technical capacity, Deo Ca is also a pioneer in implementing the PPP model in Vietnam, demonstrating methodical management of risks, complex construction and long-term operation.
The combination and resonance between the ability to design, invest in humane urban areas and construct modern infrastructure creates a solid foundation for a large project, with a profound impact on the face of the city and the lives of the people of the capital. The project also demonstrates the proactive role of Vietnamese enterprises in not only contributing capital, but also contributing intelligence, solutions and responsibility to society.
If approved, this will be a new symbolic project, where the spirit of Thang Long - Red River is reborn in a modern, ecological living space imbued with Vietnamese identity.
