With persistent and creative efforts, in the 2015-2020 tenure, the Party organisation and residents of Luong Son have completed two major tasks of completing all criteria for a new-style rural district, and getting the Ministry of Construction’s recognition of the Luong Son town and expanded areas as level-4 urban area, one year earlier than the target set in the resolution of the provincial Party Committee.

Meanwhile, meeting the standards of a district-level town is a tough goal requiring the locality to work harder. The district Party Committee has set specific tasks towards the goal, while local Party Committees, the Vietnam Fatherland Front committees, officials, Party members and locals have designed their own plans and roadmaps to implement those tasks.

The district has rolled out measures to enhance the quality of urban planning and strengthen the management of construction. A master plan on the construction of Luong Son town is being built in the direction of covering the whole district, laying the foundation for the establishment of the town, while ensuring the connection between the future town with Hoa Binh city and Hanoi.

The district will build and submit to the provincial Party Committee proposals to issue resolutions on the mobilization of resources to upgrade Thanh Cao commune to level-5 urban area and later a township by April, 2021; and upgrade the level-4 urban area in Luong Son district to become the centre of the future Luong Son town by December, 2021.

Luong Son will strive to form six urban wards out of its 11 administrative units in 2025, thus basically fulfilling criteria for a district-level town. The district will mobilize resources to build major transport works, including a road from Co Tho village of Hoa Son commune to the centre of Luong Son township, a road to the Rut industrial cluster in Tan Vinh commune, and roads inside Luong Son township.

At the same time, the district will promote administrative reform, improve the business environment to win satisfaction of locals and businesses, while organising investment promotion events, speeding up ground clearance and supporting investors in implementing urban, industrial and commercial projects.

It will continue to concretise rural roads as part of the new-style rural area building programme, while upgrading the bridge system and attracting investment for the development of infrastructure facilities in new urban areas, tourism and entertainment sites and financial-banking and trade centres. The locality expects to upgrade the transport system to at least level five and communal roads to at least level six in 2025.

Meanwhile, the district will mobilize and optimize resources to complete criteria of a four-level urban area with a view to make the future Luong Son town a political, administrative, economic, culture and social centre, and a gateway connecting Hoa Binh and Hanoi and Red River delta localities. It is also expected to serve as a logistics and service hub as well as the nucleus of industrial development in the province’s northeastern region./.
