Thang Long industrial Zone

INFRASTRUCTURE:

Land Filling Height and Gradients
TLIP is designed to be free from flooding. After filling, the elevation of the site is 8.3 m (27 feet) at the lowest and 10.5 m (35 feet) at the highest above sea level, and it keeps higher elevation by 2 - 3 m (7 - 10 feet) than its surrounding area.


Foundations: 
The character of the ground soil is sand mixed with silt clay and firm and sound enough for construction of various types of factories. The result of geo-technical survey shows that pilling is not required for the construction of an average type of up to 2-story factory. However, the soil condition is different from point to point, and, therefore, we recommend that tenants should conduct geo-technical tests in their plots before starting construction of factories.

Road System:
All roads are asphalted. The main road has six lanes and is 37 - 42m wide. On both sides of this road is a system of lights installed symmetrically at distances of 40m. The auxiliary roads have two lanes and are 2627m wide. Along them is a system of lights arranged in the form of a zigzag at distances of 45m.

Internal roads are classified into two types as shown below. The road system in the park is designed to cope with the increase of traffic volume in the future and traffic characteristics of Vietnam.

    - Main Road
    Width of the road ranging is between 37 m (121 feet) and 42 m (138 feet).
    Asphalt pavement road with 6 traffic lanes for 2 sides.
    Street light poles are aligning in parallel with 40 m (131 feet) interval at both sides of road.
    3 m - wide (10 feet) median and sidewalk at both sides.
    This Main Road, which is as high as the Hanoi – Noi Bai Highway, meets Level C in Japanese Traffic Classification.

    - Secondary Road
    Width of the roads ranges between 26 m (85 feet) and 27 m (89 feet).
    Asphalt pavement road with 2 traffic lanes for 2 sides.
    Street light poles are aligned in zigzag with 45 m (148 feet) interval at both sides of road.
    Sidewalk at both sides.

Water Purification and Supply System:
Thang Long IP provides tenants with purified water for industrial use through an iron distribution pipe network.
Thang Long Industrial Park has a water plant with a capacity of 2,000 cubic meters per day.

Wastewater Treatment System
Wastewater from factories is collected through the underground piping network and treated at the in-house wastewater treatment plant before discharging to the drainage canal running along the southern boundary of the park through the effluent pipeline. At the wastewater treatment plant, biochemical oxygen demand (BOD5), chemical oxygen demand (CODCR) and suspended solid (SS) are all measured and treated. The wastewater treatment plant has a capacity of 2,000 cubic meters per day. Here waste water is treated according to the environmental protection standards of Vietnam before being released into the ditches along the southern border of the industrial park 


Drainage System:
The drainage system is composed of Box Culvert and Covered Open Ditch network and retention ponds. Since the flow capacity of drainage ditches and related structure are calculated with the consideration of recorded data, TLIP can be kept free from flood even in case of heavy storm and typhoon in the rainy season.

Telecommunications System:
The internal telecommunication network is underground, with consideration of appearance and safety. 400 lines are available for the Phase 1 (121 ha) and Hanoi Post and Telecom Company has supplied more lines for the future in capacity and quality with optical fiber to accommodate high speed data communication, ISDN, etc.

A system of underground cables with 400 lines was installed for the first phase and has been expanded in the second phase and is again being expanded in the third phase.  Hanoi Post and Telecom Company ensures smooth communication with highspeed transmission of data.

Electricity:
TLIP has its own on-site sub-station with capacity of 40MVA x 2 which receives the extra high voltage electricity directly from the national network, through 2 circuits. Via a connection to the new 110kV transmission line from the Hoa Binh Hydraulic Power Plant by the Chem sub-station as one source; and from Pha Lai Thermal Power Plant via Dong Anh sub-station as the second source.  This better ensures the stability of power supply to tenants with less fluctuation of voltage. Transformer and Switch-gear in Chem sub-station was renewed and expanded to 250MVA x 2 in 1999 with financial support from the World Bank.
The internal power distribution system is also underground and is a double loop system for making sure the power supply to the tenant is uninterrupted and reliable enough for manufacturing operation. Tenants receive electricity from ring main units which are installed right at every plots.
