Features of planning for the development of urban underground space in Vietnam

Developing countries such as Vietnam lead the way in terms of urban population growth. As you know, the territories of large cities are rapidly expanding, so city authorities are faced with the task of meeting the growing demand for infrastructure and public spaces. The relevance of the work is due to the fact that in the context of economic development, the local land fund is increasingly narrowing, with the trend of developing green, clean, beautiful and sustainable cities. In recent years in Vietnam more attention has been and is being paid to the advantage of urban underground space. This paper examined the legal, scientific and practical aspects of planning in Vietnam, including issues of underground construction and underground space planning. According to the development trend, construction, reconstruction and urban development activities in Vietnam should be closely related to the use of underground urban space. Effective use of underground space, saving land resources and proper organization of underground work contribute to the development of cities, improving the quality of people’s life and economic growth.
