Abstract
The district of Cau Giay is one of Hanoi’s districts achieving
high-speed urbanization level. Along the district’s urbanization process, many
new traffic systems have been constructed and developed, contributing to
renovating and modernizing the general urban picture of Hanoi in general and of
the district in particular. However, beside the achievements, there remained a
lot of weaknesses in the district’s construction and management of urban
traffic systems, especially in that of road systems. This study points out the
significant problems existing in Cau Giay’s construction and management of road
systems. Among those is the development of road systems in the districts are
not catching up with Hanoi’s current urbanization process.
In fact,
the construction and management of urban landscape along the district’s streets
is not efficient. The local technical infrastructures in some areas of the
district are not modern and synchronous enough. There remain a lot of problems
in the activities of technical infrastructure construction management in
accordance with the district’s general construction plan. Based on the facts
and figures, the study refers to the theories to describe the roles of road
systems in the city’s urbanization process as well as the role of planning road
networks in the city’s general urban plan. It also mentions the requirements
and legal basis of road system management under the general construction plan.
In the
following part, the study use Cau Giay as a case study for this topic, in which
solutions to all the existing problems in the district’s road systems
management are analysed so that the road system development is in accordance
with the district’s general construction plan by 2020.
To the study’s conclusion, it is essential to build traffic
systems synchronized with the district’s other technical infrastructure
systems. At the same time, there need to pay more attention in improvement of
the local residents’ compliance with the regulations on construction. In
addition, the study also emphasizes that importance of building short-term
investment plan within the long-term plan for road system construction and
attract the other investment sources beside the state budget by encouraging the
various investment firms such as BT (Build- Transfer), BOT (Build – Operate –
Transfer) and BTO (Build – Transfer – Operate).
Executive summary
Rationale of research
This research has been conducted to identify problems in road system of Cau Giay
District, Hanoi City.
Objectives of study
To study and analyse, general planning of roads in
Cau Giay District, Hanoi City. To suggest improvement in the efficiency of
planning.
Methodology
The exploratory research method is used to study road planning
and management Cau Giay
District, Hanoi City and the current Vietnam regulations for road planning and management.
Findings and conclusion
Management of the road system under the construction
planning is a complicated system involved with different sectors. The road
system construction planning management may be assessed comprehensively as
follows:
Attained
results: Some new roads have been planned and developed in accordance with the
approved planning, forming beautiful, modern and synchronous streets for
technical infrastructure and landscape, settling difficulties occurred from the
urbanization process. Management of construction planning has been regulated
and improved suitable to the practice for the first step.
Shortcomings:
Beside the attained results in the road system management construction planning,
there are still shortcomings to be settled: construction of many roads is in
confusion, not in accordance with the planning; the spontaneous building of
works along streets still exists and is not timely prevented. The reality
requires strengthening management of construction planning of the road system
re-organization of construction administration agency, improvement of
inspection and supervision of construction in conformity to the planning,
supplementation and completion of regulations on disciplines for violations in
road construction.
Therefore,
we have to correctly assess the real situation of the construction and
development of the road system subject to the construction planning to give
solutions for effective management and construction, contributing to and accelerating the development of Cau Giay District in coming time.
To conclude, it is very necessary to manage the
construction of road system in Cau Giay District under the general construction
planning in order to improve the living standards, conforts and create favourable environment for urban inhabitants.
Recommendations
·
In the
investment and construction of road system, besides the construction of new
urban areas, it must be focused on the investment of infrastructure reform with
existing construction area.
·
Routes
must be defined the heart and boundary line that have been approved and closely
managed, avoiding re-occupying and violating boundary line.
·
Positively
taking part in the completion of legal document system on management of urban
construction planning as well as management of urban roads; proposing
difficulties during the execution; simultaneously, increasing the work of construction
management as planned.
·
Increasing
capacity of management, adding power and responsibilities of ward-level
authority in the work of management of road system construction and management
of road boundary line.
