On the morning of February 24, Hanoi began a pilot of turning off traffic lights and closing the Tran Huu Duc - Nguyen Van Giap intersection (Nam Tu Liem district) to reduce congestion.

The Trinh Van Bo - Tran Huu Duc road (section through Cau Dien ward, Nam Tu Liem district, Hanoi) has recently experienced prolonged congestion, especially on rainy days and rush hour.

After the survey, the Traffic Maintenance Board (Hanoi Department of Transport) in coordination with the Traffic Police Department of Hanoi Police proposed a plan to turn off the light signal and close the Tran Huu Duc - Nguyen Van Giap intersection to reduce congestion on the above road axis.
