Thua Thien Hue will develop synchronous and modern infrastructure to realize the goal, especially in transportation, bright urban areas, and natural disaster prevention.

The province will promote its potential and strategic location - the gateway to the East-West economic corridor with unique culture and history, focusing on tangible and intangible cultural heritage recognized by UNESCO while tapping diverse natural resources of the Huong River, Ngu Mountain, and Tam Giang - Cau Hai Lagoon.

Thua Thien Hue has identified breakthrough stages, including developing a heritage urban system combining modern, intelligent urban areas to preserve and promote heritage values. The city will also take advantage of coastal metropolitan areas, implement high economic competitiveness, and adapt to climate change.

Another focus is building Thua Thien Hue into an intense marine economic center in the country, accelerating the growth of processing, manufacturing, and electricity production industries from green energy sources. The province also prioritizes attracting large high-tech projects with high value-added potential.

According to the plan, Thua Thien Hue will have three urban centers, including the city of Hue, the northwest, and the southeast. In particular, Hue is divided into the northern and southern districts on either side of the Huong River.

The urban area in the northwest includes Phong Dien town, Quang Dien, and A Luoi districts, of which Phong Dien serves as a central metropolitan area associated with Dien Loc Port and Phong Dien Industrial Park. Industrial urban development is the driving force in the north of the province and is a gateway to Quang Tri, Quang Binh provinces and countries in the Mekong sub-region.

The southeast urban area comprises Phu Vang District, Phu Loc District, and Nam Dong District, developing the Chan May area into a tier-3 urban area - a smart, modern city associated with the Chan May - Lang Co Economic Zone.

The province will focus on three growth drivers: the Complex of Hue Monuments, the Chan May-Lang Co Economic Zone, and the Phong Dien Industrial Park.

Thua Thien Hue aims to have an average economic growth rate of up to 10% annually by 2030, an average GRDP per capita of 6,000 USD, and an urbanization rate of 70%. The province also strives to lead the country in the Provincial Competitiveness Index (PCI), and the Administrative Reform Index (PAR Index).
