Amid concerns about legal inconsistencies, the government abandons a proposal that would have allowed traffic police to retain a significant portion of collected fines.
The Hanoi People’s Committee has issued Plan No. 235/KH-UBND, with three criteria to implement government Resolution No. 48/NQ-CP dated April 5, 2022 on “Strengthening traffic order and safety and preventing traffic congestion in the 2022-2025 period” in the capital.
Under its plan on traffic and traffic safety in the 2022-2025 period, Hanoi will continue to expand its public transport network and limit the number of private vehicles on the road to ease congestion and curb environmental pollution. By 2025, public transport is to meet 30-35 per cent of travel needs.
