Ho Chi Minh City plans to build a two-level elevated road to connect the city's southern part with Long Thanh International Airport which is under construction in its neighbor province, Dong Nai.

As planned, the projected elevated road will start at Nguyen Huu Tho street in District 7, head eastward, cross the Dong Nai River to link up with Lien Cang Road and Route 25C in Nhon Trach district, Dong Nai province, before reaching the airport.

The eight-lane road is designed to be 16.7 km long, with an investment capital estimated at over VND21.48 trillion ($845 million).

An investment policy proposal is expected to be finalized and submitted to the municipal People’s Committee in May this year.

The investment policy is scheduled for approval by the fourth quarter and construction is expected to begin in 2027.
