1. Institutional Commitment
FPT University explicitly prioritizes pedestrian accessibility and safety as part of its sustainable campus planning policy.
This commitment is stated in the university’s internal design guidelines for campus development, which require all new construction projects to:
- Provide barrier-free pedestrian circulation between academic, residential, and recreational areas;
- Restrict motorized vehicle access in core campus zones;
- Integrate green and shaded walkways into the master layout to promote walking and reduce emissions.
2. Campus-Wide Implementation
All five FPT University campuses — Hanoi, Ho Chi Minh City, Da Nang, Can Tho, and Quy Nhon — have implemented pedestrian-oriented designs:
-
FPT University Hanoi Campus: A central pedestrian corridor links the Main Gate, Library, and Dormitories, where all motorized vehicles are banned.
-
FPT University Ho Chi Minh City Campus: The network of pedestrian walkways and rooftop gardens connecting the campus buildings is fully accessible, with ramps and tactile paving for ease of movement. Filled with colorful flowers and lush greenery, these paths create a refreshing and inviting environment that highlights the campus’s commitment to sustainability and walkability.
- FPT University Danang Campus: The campus stands out with its iconic “Orange Bridge” connecting the two main lecture halls, creating a distinctive architectural highlight. Shaded pedestrian walkways lined with greenery provide comfort and convenience for all users.
