Hanoi – Thai Nguyen Expressway and Inter-Regional Infrastructure: The Backbone of Growth
The CT.07 Expressway, spanning 70.6 km from Hanoi to Thai Nguyen, is a vital transportation project with a total investment of 10 trillion VND. It serves as the “backbone” driving economic and social growth in the northern midlands and mountainous regions.
This expressway is a critical hub in the northern inter-regional transportation network, connecting multiple strategic routes. To the north, it links directly to the Thai Nguyen – Cho Moi Expressway and will extend as CT.07 to Cao Bang, forming a border economic corridor with China. To the east and northwest, projects like the Thai Nguyen – Lang Son Expressway are being accelerated. Once completed, these routes will unlock new logistics, tourism, and trade opportunities for the entire region.
Logistics and Industrial Zones: Pillars of New Economic Flows

Thai Nguyen’s logistics infrastructure is a “strategic link” in the supply chain. According to the 2021-2030 Provincial Plan, with a vision to 2050, the province will develop logistics in tandem with industrial zones (IZs), creating logistics centers, dry ports, and smart warehouses connected to regional economic corridors. The most notable is the Tien Phong Dry Port in Pho Yen, a large-scale project with an investment of approximately 1.7 trillion VND.

Alongside infrastructure, the IZ system remains a growth pillar for Thai Nguyen. Pho Yen hosts major IZs like Yen Binh, Nam Pho Yen, Song Cong II, and Diem Thuy, forming a continuous production chain that attracts hundreds of electronics, mechanics, and supporting enterprises. This concentration strengthens manufacturing while sustaining strong demand for housing, services, and urban infrastructure.
Price Segmentation and Demand Trends in Infrastructure-Benefited Areas
With continuous infrastructure investment and expansion, real estate markets around key connections and IZs have seen significant price fluctuations. Land prices in areas along the Hanoi – Thai Nguyen Expressway and near major intersections have increased by an average of 15-25% annually from 2021 to 2024, particularly near IZs like Pho Yen, Yen Binh, and Song Cong.
This trend highlights “infrastructure-led” pricing, where completed infrastructure revalues assets. By 2025, as the Tien Phong Dry Port and Ring Road 5 are finalized, land prices in benefiting areas are expected to rise. With over 100,000 experts, engineers, and tens of thousands of workers creating substantial housing and rental demand, the market forms a “dual demand”: both residential and commercial investment through shophouses and bizhomes. This stable demand ensures liquidity and sustainable price growth around IZs.
Shophouses and bizhomes thrive with the emergence of “dual demand.”
Experts note that Pho Yen’s market is segmenting based on infrastructure and IZ benefits. Zone 1, around Yen Binh IZ, Samsung, and Tien Phong axis, has high prices but limited long-term residential demand due to traffic and environmental pressures. Zone 2, along the expressway and Pho Yen center, shows stable price growth with potential as infrastructure improves. Zone 3, along ring roads and inter-regional axes, is projected to increase in value as key transportation projects become operational.
Pho Yen: The New Growth Core Directly Impacted
Pho Yen’s real estate market is significantly benefiting, especially near the Hanoi – Thai Nguyen Expressway and IZs. Rising prices reflect genuine demand, providing a stable foundation for mid to long-term investors. Experts believe the “infrastructure-planning” strategy remains market-driven, particularly as Pho Yen’s prices remain competitive with Bac Ninh. Areas near the expressway or Ring Road 5 have significant accessibility advantages and price growth potential as infrastructure completes.
Pho Yen directly benefits from drivers boosting real estate prices.
In this context, City Rise (Thanh Dong Residence Urban Area Project) directly benefits from its location near the expressway, close to the administrative center, and quick access to IZs. Some Pho Yen properties remain “affordable” compared to neighboring areas, making them accessible for investors leveraging financial tools. Positioned in the new urban center, City Rise has significant price growth potential as infrastructure advances and urban spaces expand.
