The People's Committee of Hanoi City has issued Decision No 1420/QĐ-UBND, approving the investment policy for a significant project aimed at constructing and completing a wastewater collection system around the West Lake area in Tay Ho district.

The project’s primary objective is to establish a comprehensive wastewater collection system and relay pumping stations.

These facilities will connect to the existing West Lake wastewater collection systems in Phase 1 and Phase 2, laying the groundwork for a fully separate wastewater drainage system in the area.

Additionally, the project ensures future capacity to expand and connect the drainage system as required. Importantly, it aims to completely eliminate the discharge of pollutants into West Lake, contributing to environmental restoration and improvement.

The project is expected to require a total investment of approximately VND99.149 billion (nearly $3.9 million), funded by the Tay Ho district budget.

The implementation period is set from 2025 to 2027.
