The Second Hanoi Drainage Project for Environmental Improvement completes the two stage drainage development and improvement of the To Lich river basin in Hanoi. The overall implementation period including design and procurement is proposed from 2007 to 2012 including the construction period which is planned from 2008 to 2011.

The Project area comprises the left bank of the To Lich River in Hanoi City with an area of 77.5 km2 and contains four sub-Basins, namely, West Lake (9.3 km2), To Lich (20.0 km2), Lu (10.2 km2), Set (7.1 km2), Kim Nguu (17.3 km2), Hoang Liet (8.1 km2), Yen So (5.5 km2). The project also includes the new Bay Mau wastewater treatment plant in Thong Nhat park.

The overall objectives and aims of the Project are:

The Government of the Socialist Republic of Vietnam has received the financial assistance of the Japanese Government through JBIC loan, to facilitate implementation of this major project.

Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam, is an ancient and richly attractive cultural city and home for more than 3 million people. It is the centre for Government, administration and commerce in this fast developing country. New development in this city is restricted by the age of the city, land availability, transportation restrictions and the capacity of utilities and support facilities.

In order to preserve the architectural attraction and heritage of this city, the Government has planned new urban development in the Thang Long North district, approximately 18 km. from Hanoi. The area master-planned for development is low lying swamp, the major portion of which is currently used for rice paddy. The Site is immediately adjacent to and partly below the level of the Red River. The nature of the Site, water table, underlying soils and geology provide major challenges to the engineering and construction of the works.
