The city plans to ensure all new urban planning schemes are consistent with national and local master plans, with a long-term vision, strong feasibility and minimal major adjustments. All new or revised plans will integrate smart city solutions and be developed, appraised and managed through a geographic information system (GIS).
For the construction sector, the city aims for all new buildings and infrastructure projects to adopt Building Information Modeling (BIM), improving efficiency in design, construction and operational management. Ho Chi Minh City also plans to have one or two new urban or technology zones officially recognized as achieving smart city maturity standards.
In transport, logistics and public security, the city will accelerate the adoption of digital technologies for management and operations. Under the plan, all traffic signals on major roads and key intersections will be connected through real-time data systems to enable early detection of congestion and accidents, while supporting traffic alerts and more flexible traffic management.
