Heedless car parking is listed as a major source of damage to Hanoi s newly-paved sidewalks, whose stones are projected to last for up to 70 years.
On Huynh Thuc Khang Street, the newly installed strip of sidewalk, with many spots still being worked on, has already been invaded by parking cars.
As witnessed by your correspondent on Friday, drivers ignored the no-parking sign and left their cars on the sidewalk, despite the cement used in many spots of the walkway s renovation having yet to be set in.
