The move aims to boost local tourism activities.

The Ministry of Transport is responsible for guiding the two localities to pilot the transport services.

In May, 2018, Ha Noi was the first locality to put double-decker buses into operation. 

It was followed by HCMC, which has introduced double-decker bus services on a trial basis since early 2020.
