(HBO) – As of the end of 2019, Luong Son district in Hoa Binh province had completed the new-style rural and urban area building targets. To implement the resolution adopted by the provincial Party Congress, the district has mobilised more investment resources in urban infrastructure, aiming to build its centre and expanded area into a town in the future.

The Luong Son market and commercial residential area project that uses non-State budget has contributed to infrastructure development in Luong Son township.

On November 20, 2019, the Ministry of Construction issued Decision No. 986 recognising Luong Son township and the expanded area encompassing Lam Son, Tan Vinh, Cu Yen, Nhuan Trach and Hoa Son communes as the fourth-tier urban area. Luong Son township and its five adjacent communes are projected to form a town, comprising six inner wards of the fourth-tier urban area, and the five outskirts communes of Lien Son, Cao Son, Cao Duong, Thanh Son and Thanh Cao.

To that end, the provincial Department of Construction has proposed the provincial People’s Committee prioritise capital to projects under the urban development programme by 2030 approved under the committee’s Decision No.1474 dated July 10, 2019.

The provincial Department of Construction also urged Luong Son district to promptly put forth an adjusted master plan in order to create a foundation for the transformation, along with planning management mechanisms, an urban development programme and a detailed planning scheme of central areas.

It is crucial to turn Nhuan Trach and Hoa Son communes into wards in order to build Luong Son town.

To build Luong Son district into a town during the 2025-2030 period, the district People’s Committee proposed the provincial People’s Committee adjust Luong Son’s urban planning scheme towards expanding urban areas across the district, allocating capital to the detailed plan of the six wards and the urban development programme to 2020 with a vision towards 2030, focusing on infrastructure development, ensuring rural development in combination with urbanization.

It also suggested building new industrial clusters in Hoa Son commune, investing in infrastructure at the Nhuan Trach industrial park to create income and attract people to work and live, and building a new market in the Luong Son industrial park to meet demands of workers and raise the rate of labourers involving in trade and services./.
