With a population of over 8 million, Vietnam's capital city of Hanoi is one of the most densely populated cities in Southeast Asia and an important transport centre of the Red River Delta Region and the whole country. The millennium-old city's juggle between traffic and liveability is currently tipping towards increasing traffic characterized by high levels of affordability and accessibility.

In this paper, Sarah Remmei, Kapil Chaudhery and Luong Ngoc Tu sketched an overview of the existing mobility in Hanoi. The authors identified data gap, assessed key players and actors, existing policy and framework, and recommended measures to raise liveability and ecological sustainability.
