The Sóng Thần Interchange is a crucial junction located beneath the Sóng Thần Overpass in An Bình Ward, Dĩ An City, Bình Dương Province. It serves as an intersection for several vital routes, including National Highway 1K, Provincial Road 743, and Độc Lập Street, along with numerous other roads leading to the Sóng Thần Industrial Park. This area always experiences a high volume of vehicles, particularly trucks and containers traveling to and from the ports and industrial zones.
The Sóng Thần Interchange also connects to Phạm Văn Đồng Boulevard in Ho Chi Minh City via An Bình Street. Consequently, in addition to the substantial container traffic from the industrial parks and ports, this area bears the burden of accommodating a significant number of vehicles belonging to residents of both Bình Dương Province and Ho Chi Minh City.
Therefore, investing in the construction of the Sóng Thần Interchange and expanding An Bình Street are imperative. These two major transportation projects in this area are expected to cost a total of VND 5,300 billion, aiming to alleviate traffic congestion at the gateway to Bình Dương.
The Sóng Thần Interchange project has a total investment of over VND 3,800 billion, with compensation and site clearance costing more than VND 2,400 billion (Bình Dương Province contributes over VND 1,900 billion, and the rest is covered by Ho Chi Minh City). Approximately 144 households are affected by this project.
The Sóng Thần Interchange will be designed as an overpass spanning the North-South railway line and connecting Độc Lập Boulevard and An Bình Street. There will also be a branch road connecting to National Highway 1A towards the Sóng Thần and Linh Xuân Overpasses.
The second project involves upgrading and expanding An Bình Street, with a total investment of up to VND 1,700 billion (Bình Dương Province contributes VND 1,500 billion, and Ho Chi Minh City covers the rest). The project starts at the Sóng Thần Overpass in Dĩ An City, Bình Dương Province, and ends at Phạm Văn Đồng Street in Thủ Đức City, Ho Chi Minh City. The total length of the route is 1.4 km, of which the section in Bình Dương Province is 1.1 km long.
Currently, An Bình Street has only two lanes with a width of about 7-8m. According to the draft land-use planning of Dĩ An City until 2030, An Bình Street will be expanded to a width of approximately 34m to connect with Phạm Văn Đồng Street in Ho Chi Minh City. A total of 170 households are affected, including 102 households that will be completely cleared from the site. The photo shows the current state of An Bình Street.
Observations reveal that the Sóng Thần Interchange and An Bình Street frequently experience traffic congestion, especially during peak hours. The Sóng Thần Interchange currently has only two lanes in each direction and lacks a median divider.
It is known that the traffic congestion in this area has persisted for almost a decade, yet a solution has not been implemented to date.
Both the Sóng Thần Interchange and the expansion of An Bình Street play a significant role in addressing traffic congestion and promoting economic and social development in Dĩ An City, Bình Dương Province. The completion of these projects will not only improve transportation infrastructure but also facilitate the growth of industrial parks, services, and real estate in the area.
