Vietnam’s Mekong Delta hub announces 20-year master plan

Building an urban railway network and more roads are part of Can Tho city’s development plan for the next two decades which was announced at a conference Wednesday. Officials from the city People’s Committee, the Ministry of Construction, and the Southern Institute for Rural and Urban Planning attended the conference themed “Can Tho City’s Master Plan till 2025”.

The plan envisages making Ninh Kieu and Binh Thuy districts the city’s foremost urban center and upgrading Thot Not zone into a district. The city also plans to build rail links with neighboring provinces like An Giang and Ca Mau besides two roads flanking the Can Tho and Hau rivers. Ninh Kieu wharf would become a tourist port under the plan.
