The document referred to the instruction of Hanoi People’s Committee and the municipal Steering Committee on COVID-19 prevention and control at the meeting on September 19 on closing   streets to traffic for pedestrianization after a time of suspension to prevent COVID-19 infection.

The areas near Hoan Kiem Lake, including Hang Dao and Hang Giay Streets and the Dong Xuan Night Market, would resume their normal walking-only schedule from 7 p.m. on Friday to midnight on Sunday. 

The district People’s Committee asked the task forces to enhance inspection and strictly handle violations of COVID-19 control regulations.
