The scope of the 1/500 scale detailed planning project for the Can Gio Beachfront Urban Area (4 Sub-areas A, B, C, and D_E) falls within the boundaries of the 2,870-hectare Can Gio Beachfront Urban Area, which was approved by the City People’s Committee in Decision No. 3800/QD-UBND dated September 5, 2018. The nature of this area is a beachfront urban area focusing on tourism, resorts, M.I.C.E (meetings, incentives, conferences, and exhibitions), smart cities, high-tech services, residential areas, and other supporting facilities.
Details of the location, scope, and nature of each sub-area are as follows:
Sub-area A (over 953.23 hectares): Located north of Can Thanh town, south of the East Sea and Sub-area E, east of Sub-area B and Sub-area E, and west of the East Sea (Dong Tranh River estuary). Sub-area A is envisioned as an ecological residential area closely linked to tourism services, serving as a gateway to the Can Gio beachfront urban area.
Sub-area B (approximately 659.9 hectares): Bordered by the East Sea to the east, Sub-area A to the west, Sub-area E to the south, and the green landscape corridor along the coastal road and the internal road of the 30/4 Tourist Area to the north. Sub-area B is planned to accommodate residential, resort, and urban service-public works (healthcare, education, administrative offices, commerce, and offices), urban green spaces, and technical infrastructure hubs, embracing the vision of a modern and smart city.
Sub-area C (over 318.3 hectares): Located north of Sub-areas E and B, south and east of the East Sea, and west of Sub-areas E and D. Sub-area C is designated as a financial, economic, commercial, and office hub, featuring a port and a modern urban area with a mix of housing types, including linked houses (limited), villas, and high-rise buildings. This sub-area will be equipped with synchronized social and technical infrastructure as per the approved plan and adjustments.
Sub-area D (approximately 480.5 hectares) and Sub-area E (approximately 458.12 hectares, consisting of green spaces and water bodies): Located north of Sub-areas A and B, south of the East Sea, east of Sub-areas B and C, and west of Sub-area A. Sub-area D is envisioned as a high-end commercial and resort center, featuring a modern and smart urban area with linked houses and villas. Sub-area E, on the other hand, will serve as a green space, water channel, and urban-scale tree plantation.
The proposed planning project is initiated by Can Gio Beachfront Urban JSC, with the following consulting units engaged in the planning of each sub-area: Vietnam Urban Planning and Development Joint Stock Company (Sub-areas A and D&E), Viet Arc Joint Stock Company (Sub-area B), and Vietnam Urban Development Consulting Corporation (Sub-area C).
The proposed population scale for the Can Gio Beachfront Urban Area aligns with the approved planning tasks and adjusted sub-area planning. It is estimated to accommodate a maximum of 228,506 residents, with Sub-area A housing 59,027, Sub-area B accommodating 75,000, Sub-area C 41,364, and Sub-area D 53,115.
