Intersection expansion in HCM City scheduled for completion by year end

The expansion of An Phu Intersection, one of the most congested site in Ho Chi Minh City, is scheduled for completion in December this year.

The construction started in December 2022 with an estimated investment capital of over VND3.4 trillion ($133.5 million), according to the Transportation Works Construction Investment Project Management Authority of Ho Chi Minh City (TCIP). 

The project is designed to have three layers, comprising roads, a four-lane two-way tunnel, and two two-lane overpasses.

The project has so far completed 65% of construction work.

Its tunnel is scheduled to open to traffic on April 30 this year, helping to ease traffic congestion.
