A massive road project will improve transport to and from Ho Chi Minh City (HCMC) in Vietnam. The construction work for the 73km stretch of road will start in the fourth quarter of 2023.

The project has been delayed, having originally planned to start in 2019 and be completed by 2021. However, financial pressures led to the start of the project being held back.

The work has been approved by the Ministry of Transport and will link Bau Bang District, Binh Duong Province and Duc Hoa, Long An Province.
