The embankment around Hoan Kiem Lake has been built for a long time and started showing signs of degradation from 2017, Long said.

He added that the Hoan Kiem district’s People's Committee has included upgrading the revetments around Hoan Kiem Lake in the project of construction, renovation and embellishment for the area surrounding the lake in 2019.

In the immediate future, to ensure safety for the city’s residents and tourists visiting the lake, the Hoan Kiem Management Board started to place warning signs at fences of embankments and paths around the lake. It also regularly monitors any change of the embankment around the lake to promptly report to the local government for repair.

Hoan Kiem district People's Committee asked the management board to consult scientists, study and complete the project dossier and submit it to the Ministry of Construction for appraisal.

On June 27, 2019, the Department of Construction Management under Ministry of Construction announced the results of evaluation and adjustment for investment projects, including the renovation for revetment around Hoan Kiem Lake.
