Building temporary overpasses is aimed at temporarily relieving traffic pressure on Tran Quoc Hoan Street while the construction unit expands the scope of barriers for the construction of the Tran Quoc Hoan – Phan Thuc Duyen underpass (part of the project connecting Tran Quoc Hoan – Cong Hoa).
The joint venture of CK4 Group Joint Stock Company – Thanh Phat Construction Company Limited – Saigon Traffic Construction Joint Stock Company is maintaining 2 continuous construction sites: the open tunnel area on Phan Thuc Duyen Street adjacent to the airport and the tunnel located in the middle of Hoang Van Thu park
Representatives from the Ho Chi Minh City Traffic Management Project Investment Management Board (Traffic Management Board) confirmed on the morning of February 21 that the proposed measures to ensure traffic safety for the Tran Quoc Hoan – Phan Thuc Duyen underpass project have been approved by the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Transport.
Accordingly, starting from February 24, the construction contractor will expand the scope of existing barriers on Phan Thuc Duyen Street (on the Thang Long Street side) to Tran Quoc Hoan Street by an additional 13.5 meters to construct the underpass crossing Tran Quoc Hoan Street (Tan Binh District). The initial phase of expanding the barriers will reduce the existing 5 lanes on Tran Quoc Hoan Street to 3 lanes. Therefore, temporary overpasses will be installed with 5 lanes on the route to relieve the pressure of vehicles coming from the direction of Tan Son Nhat Airport area.
The plan is that from February 25 to April 25, the contractors will build a temporary overpass on Thang Long Street, 66 meters long, 14 meters wide, with 3 lanes. Then, from April 25 to June 25, the second temporary overpass will also be constructed with a scale of 2 lanes, 100 meters long, 9 meters wide towards Hoang Van Thu Park for vehicle passage. From June 25 to December 31, the investor will proceed with the completion of the entire sealed underpass with a length of 79 meters, width ranging from 5 to 9 meters.
The Tran Quoc Hoan – Phan Thuc Duyen underpass project is package No. 9 of the project connecting Tran Quoc Hoan – Cong Hoa – a key project to solve congestion issues for the Tan Son Nhat gateway area, connecting to Terminal 3 in the future. This is the most important package of the road running through the Tan Son Nhat Airport area, with a total investment of over 4,800 billion VND, currently completing more than 50% of the construction volume.
