Population Growth by Commune, 2009-2013
Population Density by Commune, 2013
Population Distribution, by District 2013
• High population density in urban centres of HCMC (500 persons / ha < )
• Density gradually decreases in suburban centres (50 persons/ha >).
• Rapid growth of population and expansion of urban areas towards outer areas (HCMC, Dong Nai and Binh Duong), with low population density.

Conslusions
16
TOD has a high potential in HCMC
Challenges to TOD implementation
Lack of knowledge and experience of TOD
Weak coordination between relevant agencies
Lack of comprehensive legal supports for land readjustments along transit corridors
HCMC supports the application of TOD to Urban Transport Projects as a measure to sustainable development objective.
UCCI is willing to cooperate and share experience with international institutions to adopt and implement the best practices of TOD in HCMC for sustainable development target
