On September 29, as reported by Tien Phong Newspaper, the Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 project is accelerating its progress.

During a recent site inspection, Deputy Prime Minister Mai Van Chinh urged the contractors to work in shifts around the clock to meet the project deadlines. He mandated that the technical opening of the road should be achieved by December 19, 2025, with full operation by mid-2026.

The Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3, spanning approximately 27 km through Binh Duong Province, includes four overpasses at key intersections: My Phuoc Tan Van, Nguyen Thi Minh Khai, National Highway 13, and Cach Mang Thang Tam.


Construction of the Nguyen Thi Minh Khai overpass, which began in late 2023, has now reached the bridge girder connection stage, marking the first urban overpass to take shape among the four planned.

According to the schedule, the main highway at the Binh Chuan interchange and the Binh Goi bridge will be completed by December 2025. The Tan Van interchange will be operational by April 30, 2026, with the entire project slated for completion by June 30, 2026.

To ensure timely completion, the Binh Duong Traffic Construction Project Management Board has launched a “100-day sprint” campaign to accelerate progress.

Tran Hung Viet, Director of the Binh Duong Traffic Construction Project Management Board, stated that the unit will closely monitor and supervise the contractors’ progress, utilizing surveillance cameras for real-time oversight.

Amid the rainy season, project owners have instructed contractors to maximize work during favorable weather. On rainy days, focus shifts to indoor tasks, while sunny days see increased manpower to expedite progress.

Construction Company No. 1, responsible for the Nguyen Thi Minh Khai and National Highway 13 overpasses, has completed nearly 70% of the work to date.

Nguyen Van Cu, Deputy Commander of the Construction Site Command at Construction Company No. 1, noted that for road foundation work, which cannot be done in the rain, the company will use tarpaulins to cover 10-20 meters, ensuring continuous operations. Additionally, materials like soil and stone are stockpiled on-site for immediate use during dry weather.

Hoang Anh Dao, Director of Workshop 847 at Truong Son Construction Corporation’s Company 340, highlighted that the primary challenge, aside from weather, is the supply of road foundation materials. “We will mobilize equipment and labor to work in additional shifts to meet our targets,” said Dao.
