Hanoi: Road users in Hanoi will be able to directly access real-time traffic updates from July 15 through a network of 36 variable message signs (VMS) installed at key routes and intersections across the capital. The electronic boards will display live information on traffic congestion, accidents, flooding, traffic diversions, and alternative routes, helping improve traffic management and road safety.

According to Vietnam News Agency, the system is part of Phase 2 of a project to upgrade Hanoi's traffic command and information centre and install a camera-based monitoring and command system serving traffic management, public security, and traffic violation handling. This initiative aims to enhance the efficiency of traffic flow and ensure safer travel for commuters in the city.
