In recent years, Quang Ninh has become a bright spot in urban development and infrastructure construction, especially transport infrastructure. Thereby, it has created many favorable conditions to promote socio-economic development and improve the quality of people's lives.
Over the past 3 years, despite facing many difficulties due to the impact of the Covid-19 pandemic; the world situation has fluctuated, leading to many difficulties affecting all aspects of people's lives and jobs. With the determination of the entire political system, Quang Ninh province continues to allocate resources, attract investment, focus on investing in developing urban infrastructure and transport infrastructure. According to the province's estimate, the total social investment capital in the period of 2021-2023 is estimated at 294,059 billion VND, an average increase of about 10.2%/year during this period (the target of the Resolution of the 15th Provincial Congress is to increase by over 10%/year). Socio-economic infrastructure, especially transport, urban, tourism and service infrastructure, is invested synchronously.
The province has completed and put into operation projects such as: Van Don - Mong Cai Expressway, Love Bridge, the road connecting Cai Lan Industrial Park through Viet Hung Industrial Park to Ha Long - Van Don Expressway; the road from Van Don International Airport to Van Don High-class Entertainment Resort Complex; the system of traffic works connecting 104 villages and hamlets in Binh Lieu district.
Along with that, Ha Long International Passenger Port - the first specialized port in Vietnam, is the meeting place of international-class cruise ships, which is being completed and the quality of services is being improved. The chain of tourist ports in the province is also being invested synchronously, operating according to the model of "one destination, many utilities", such as: Tuan Chau International Passenger Port - the gateway to bring visitors to the Heritage and World Wonder of Ha Long Bay; Ao Tien High-class Port is designed with the theme of green space - a new gateway for Quang Ninh to effectively exploit the advantages of sea and island tourism, which is very popular...
On the other hand, the province's internal traffic infrastructure also clearly shows its interconnectedness, comprehensiveness and seamlessness. Along with the main routes, new tourist routes connecting to tourist centers in the province have been formed. Typically: Ha Long - Cam Pha coastal road, the beautiful coastal landscape axis of Quang Ninh, connecting Ha Long Bay and Bai Tu Long Bay with impressive architectural works, commercial centers, shopping malls, wholesale markets... In addition, many routes, such as: Road to Yen Tu relic site (Uong Bi city); Yen Duc village road (Dong Trieu town); Binh Lieu highland road... have been renewed and expanded, best meeting the travel needs of tourists.
The transportation system in rural and mountainous areas is also increasingly synchronized, facilitating people's travel, trading goods, promoting socio-economic development in regions in the province... In 2022, Quang Ninh ranked first in the list of localities with the best infrastructure index in Vietnam.
Mr. Le Manh Hien - a Quang Ninh resident who has been away from his hometown for a long time, confided: “Although I have always followed the development of my hometown, now that I have returned to visit and witnessed with my own eyes, I can see more clearly the rapid changes of my hometown, especially the convenient and modern roads and transportation. In particular, the Van Don - Mong Cai expressway has just been inaugurated, helping us to travel to Mong Cai city very quickly. I am really excited, because Quang Ninh is developing day by day, and the people are enjoying those achievements…”.
Currently, the province is urgently implementing many dynamic traffic projects, such as: Cua Luc 3 Bridge; riverside road connecting from Ha Long - Hai Phong expressway to Dong Trieu town (section from provincial road 338 to Dong Trieu town); road connecting from Ha Long - Hai Phong expressway (km6 + 700) to provincial road 338 (phase I)... The province is also proactively coordinating with neighboring provinces and cities to deploy investment and complete Trieu Bridge and the access road connecting National Highway 18 with TL389; Lai Xuan bridge project and the road at both ends of the bridge; construction of Ben Rung bridge and the access road system; upgrading and renovating road 342 connecting Lang Son province; the road connecting from National Highway 279 (Tan Dan commune, Ha Long city) to DT291 (Tay Yen Tu town, Son Dong district, Bac Giang province)...
Up to this point, Quang Ninh is the locality with the largest number of kilometers of highway in the country (176/1,046km). This is a new breakthrough of Quang Ninh province in the first half of the term of implementing the Resolution of the 15th Provincial Congress on developing strategic transport infrastructure, promoting regional and intra-regional connectivity and international integration cooperation.
Along with that, the planning, land management, and urban infrastructure work has been synchronously renovated, civilized, modern, bright - green - clean - beautiful - safe, towards the smart urban model. Quang Ninh has 13 urban areas. Ha Long City is a type I urban area under the province; Mong Cai, Cam Pha, Uong Bi are type II urban areas; Quang Yen, Dong Trieu are type III urban areas; Van Don, Tien Yen, Quang Ha are type IV urban areas; 4 towns (Ba Che, Binh Lieu, Dam Ha, Co To) are type V urban areas... Quang Ninh is among the localities with the highest urbanization rate in the country (about 68.5%).
From a low starting point, Quang Ninh has risen to the top of the most dynamically developing localities in the country. In particular, the province has effectively applied solutions to attract investment in the form of public-private partnership (PPP).
