Thu Minh 10:51, 2016/07/10
Under the Hanoi`s Master Transport Plan for 2030, with a vision to 2050, the city will build several new interprovincial coach terminals in urban centers and satellite urban areas.
Specifically, the city will build the Yen Nghia Terminal in Ha Dong district across 7ha of land, the North-eastern Terminal in Gia Lam district on 10ha, the Southern Terminal in Thanh Tri district on 11ha and the Dong Anh Terminal in Dong Anh district on 5.3ha, as well as the Western Terminal in Quoc Oai district on 7ha and the Northern Terminal in Soc Son district on 7ha. 
In addition, several other new terminals will be constructed in the city’s satellite urban areas, including the Phu Xuyen Terminal in Phu Xuyen district on 5ha, the Xuan Mai Terminal in Xuan Mai district on 5ha, the Nam Hoa Lac and Bac Hoa Lac terminals in Hoa Lac district on 5ha each, the Son Tay 2 Terminal in Son Tay district on 5ha, the Nam Soc Son and Bac Soc Son terminals in Soc Son district on 5ha each.

In the coming time, Hanoi city will gradually move the lorry terminals beyond Ring Road No. 3, which runs through Soc Son, Bac Tu Liem, Nam Tu Liem, Cau Giay, Thanh Xuan, Hoang Mai, Long Bien, Gia Lam and Dong Anh districts.
The old terminals will then be used for public transport services. 
Under the plan, Hanoi’s five satellite cities will accommodate one lorry terminal each.
The population of expanded Hanoi is forecast to grow to 7.44 million by 2020 and around 9.5 million by 2030.
The Master Transport Plan aims to accelerate the development of Hanoi towards a more public transport-oriented city, and more short term and small-scale measures encouraging soft mobility will be also included to alleviate the city’s immediate issues of traffic congestion and atmospheric pollution.
