On September 21, 2025, Hanoi will continue to maintain traffic management and adjustment measures to improve the user experience, especially on important highways and bridges. Changes in lane division, speed, and people gradually getting used to the new traffic plan are frequently mentioned topics. At the same time, the accident situation still has serious cases, requiring higher vigilance from both people and authorities.
Highlights
Changing lane and speed plans on the Phap Van – Cau Gie and Hanoi – Hai Phong expressways
The Vietnam Road Administration has just issued a new decision (No. 1313 and 1314) adjusting the traffic organization plan: lane 1 (lane close to the inner median strip) on these expressways will only be for vehicles that meet high speeds (e.g., 90-120 km/h) and allowable vehicles — banning common trucks, large passenger cars, and sleeper buses from this lane.

The new regulation also requires additional signs, clear road markings, and coordination between the road management unit, VIDIFI, and the traffic police to ensure drivers understand and comply.

Proposal to separate vehicle lanes to reduce inner-city congestion
In recent surveys, opinions from traffic experts have been heard about clearer lane separation between cars and motorbikes, especially on inner-city roads with many intersections and narrow alleys. Lane separation with hard barriers has been tested (for example, Nhat Tan Bridge), but people have reported that the motorbike lane is too narrow, which can cause inconvenience.

There needs to be an assessment and adjustment to ensure that lane separation is both effective in terms of traffic and ensures safety for motorbikes.

Cam Lo - La Son Expressway expansion expected to start in October
According to Hanoionline, the Cam Lo - La Son Expressway expansion project will start in October. This project is located outside Hanoi geographically, but the news is included in the “Hanoi Traffic” newsletter because of its impact on national traffic, connectivity and circulation between regions.

People are increasingly familiar with the new transportation plan on Nhat Tan Bridge
The installation of lane dividers and the adjustment of motorbike/car traffic on Nhat Tan Bridge is showing positive signs - people's traffic is more convenient after getting used to the new plan. Although there are still peak times of congestion due to unfamiliar traffic.

Bus route 59 - positive experience with electric vehicles
Bus route 59 (Hanoi) is highly appreciated for its experience when using electric vehicles. Passengers responded positively about the smoothness, cleanliness and environmental efficiency compared to buses running on internal combustion engines. This is one of the news mentioned as evidence of the trend of green transportation and more modern public transportation.

Analysis & Evaluation
The issuance of new regulations on lane separation and speed on highways is a significant step forward to improve discipline and reduce collisions caused by vehicles not suitable for high-speed travel.
However, any lane separation regulation requires an adaptation process: clear signs, organization, and strict enforcement of violations, otherwise it can easily lead to chaos when traffic participants are not familiar with it.
The transition to green transportation such as electric buses has been well received, but it is necessary to expand the network, increase frequency, and ensure convenience to attract people from private vehicles to public transport.
Separating motorbikes and cars in the inner city is a difficult problem — small roads, narrow alleys, complex terrain — requiring appropriate infrastructure design solutions and real-life feedback from people for correction.
The fact that people are “gradually getting used to” the new plan is a good sign, but it is not enough if there is no synchronization in management and supervision; improving the speed of fines and controlling violations (including by images) is very important.
Conclusion & recommendations
On September 21, 2025, Hanoi recorded many positive news: new regulations on highways, expansion of new highways, good feedback from people about changes in traffic, and the development of green means of transport such as electric vehicles. However, there are still challenges: inner-city lane division, speed of implementation, driver management and people's awareness when there are new regulations.
Recommendations for Hanoi traffic participants:
When traveling on the Phap Van – Cau Gie or Hanoi – Hai Phong highways, pay attention to comply with the new lane number 1: only vehicles are allowed, limit entering the lane if not suitable.
For inner-city motorcyclists, it is advisable to follow the lane division plan on routes such as Nhat Tan Bridge and Vo Chi Cong to choose a reasonable route, avoiding rush hour.
Bus passengers should try to experience electric cars if they have the opportunity — supporting public transport will help reduce pressure on private vehicles.
Authorities need to increase inspections, fines and use surveillance cameras to ensure all new regulations are strictly followed.
The government should continue to survey and collect feedback from the people to adjust lane division plans to better suit the actual traffic volume and road conditions.
