A regional agency for metropolitan planning taking part in the development of the Grand Paris Project The Grand Paris transportation project (Grand Paris Express) is the centerpiece of Ile-de-France 2030 s transport policies and urban development orientations. When completed, this new metro network will offer in particular excellent connections with the high speed railway network.
A regional agency for metropolitan planning & development efficiently structured IAU-IdF s workforce is split among: 5 technical departments (Urban planning & Design, Transportation, Environment, Economy, Housing & Sociology), 5 cross-departments (communication, GIS, information, media library and publishing studio), 2 administrative departments (human resources and finance) and 3 specialized units in the field of health, security and sport. In addition to this, IAU-IdF is an active member of the French Federation of Urban Planning Agencies (FNAU )

Project Team s Organization Chart
The HCR Plan approved in 2008 A planning region of: - 7 provinces - 13,500 km2-12.5 M inhabitants It set key development orientations, in particular 2 east-west mixed transportation corridors and the promotion of Hai Duong to the status of «regional» city by 2030 (source NIURP/Hansen Partnership)
Overview of Hanoi Capital Region Today The scope of the revision includes Ha Noi capital and 9 provinces: Vinh Phuc, Bac Ninh, Hai Duong, Hung Yen, Ha Nam, Hoa Binh, Phu Tho, Thai Nguyen and Bac Giang. HCR reaches today a total area of 24,314 km2 and a population of approximately 17.5 M people (i.e. 19.1% of VN s population). A bigger region in terms of population and space, but not necessarily in terms of wealth per capita because the 3 new provinces are mainly rural (source VIUP)
Land use and urban network of HCR Farmland & forests: 1,702,233 Ha Residential lands: 147,775 Ha Other developed lands: 222,100 Ha Unused & vacant lands: 165,028 Ha > 454,000 Ha requested by 2020 for HCR s food security Regional urban system: 136 cities/towns Regional percentage of urban population: 30% (same as VN as whole) Average population size: 35,000 people per city/town One of the most intensely populated regions in the world, with rural densities reaching up to 1,500 people/sq.km and urban ones up to 40,000 people/sq.km (i.e a desakota ) (source VIUP)
A desakota undergoing rapid transformations Significant and hard to manage changes, yet not as radical as in China!
Transportation networks of HCR A need to catch up with many big infrastructure projects, particularly in Hanoi Capital (source VIUP)
SWOT Analysis Quite useful to launch the debate on key development issues!
Benchmark of Regional «Models» Often requested yet seldom used: an exercise in style in some ways!
Analysis, Diagnosis & Forecasting Socioeconomic databases in Vietnam must make some progresses
Spatial Visions & Development Orientations HOW TO MAKE HCR INTO A LARGE POLYCENTRIC & INTEGRATED METROPOLITAN REGION? WORK IN PROGRESS!
Our main inputs in the project International (i.e. not only «French») expertise and knowledge in «strategic» metropolitan planning and benchmarking Capacity to adapt and tailor our «European know-how» to vietnamese planning procedures and technical skills Ability to quickly produce spatial concepts and socioeconomic growth scenarios Capacity to balance «scientific» planning approaches (statistically and GIS-driven) with more pragmatic expertises
Key moments in the project
