The Hanoi Public Transport Management Centre will offer offline mode for virtual tickets for public transport from September 20 to make it more convenient for city’s commuters, its director Thai Ho Phuong said on September 18.

The Hanoi Department of Transport has proposed a 392 billion VND investment in an Intelligent Transport System, including the installation of 600 traffic monitoring cameras across the city from 2025 to 2027.

The heart of Hanoi pulsated with life as locals and tourists alike gathered in the Old Quarter to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival, transforming the area into a bustling hub of culture and tradition.

Severe flooding from the Red River has destroyed 100% of the peach trees in Hanoi’s largest peach village, leaving local farmers with massive financial losses and no trees to sell for Tet (luar new year).

Floodwaters caused by Typhoon Yagi have left 30,000 people still displaced in Hanoi, even as water levels in the Red, Da, and Duong Rivers begin to recede.

Severe flooding hit Hanoi after heavy rain overnight, causing deep water levels and widespread traffic disruptions, especially on key roads and highways.

Following recent flooding, the Red River's midstream isle and adjacent residential areas near Hanoi's Long Bien and Chuong Duong bridges are submerged under heaps of trash and debris.

Rents for prime spaces in Hà Nội’s central areas stand at a competitive US$96.4 per square metre.

Among these are buildings located on prime real estate that even major real estate developers covet, raising questions about the efficiency and future of urban development projects in the city.

Following Typhoon Yagi's impact on Hanoi, streets were strewn with broken and uprooted trees. Many trees were uprooted, exposing shallow root systems that had been damaged or left in their original soil bags during sidewalk renovations.

The Hanoi Tax Department has announced new policies on tax extensions, exemptions, and reductions for individuals and businesses affected by Typhoon Yagi.

Nhat Tan ward in Hanoi has been severely impacted by historic flooding, leading to the destruction of peach and kumquat crops. Farmers face significant losses and a long recovery process.

Hanoi’s recovery plan includes replanting 3,000 trees, as over 40,000 were damaged by Typhoon Yagi. Efforts are underway to restore parks and urban areas.

The administration of Hanoi capital has lowered the flood alert level as water levels of the Red and Duong rivers flowing through the capital keep receding.

As a major administrative centre of Vietnam, the capital city regards digital transformation as a top priority to enhance governance, facilitate administrative procedures, and connect with citizens and businesses.

Severe flooding in areas near the Red River has prompted emergency evacuations in Hanoi. With water levels rising above 1 meter, families are rushing to relocate children, elderly, and essential belongings to safer locations.

Prices have remained mostly stable as Hanoi is left reeling from the damage caused by Super Typhoon Yagi, Asia's most powerful storm this year.

As water levels rise along the major rivers surrounding Hanoi, residents and authorities remain on high alert. With torrential rains upstream, the risk of severe flooding continues to grow, threatening communities along the rivers' banks.

Hanoi CDC will collaborate with the National Institute of Hygiene and Epidemiology and the Central Hospital for Tropical Diseases to collect samples for diagnostic testing for suspected cases.

In just a few hours on September 7, typhoon Yagi swept over Hanoi, leaving not only material damage but also emotional impacts on many people.
