Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3: Speeding up to prevent people from "climbing ladders" into their homes at Tan Van intersection

Just hope to stabilize life soon

The Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 project through Binh Duong starts at Tan Van intersection and ends at Binh Goi bridge with a total length of about 26.6 km. Of which, the 15.3 km long section that coincides with My Phuoc - Tan Van road has been invested in and built before.

A section at Tan Van intersection is under construction.

Tan Van Interchange (section through Di An City, Binh Duong Province) belongs to the XL1 package, with a length of about 2.4 km with a 3-storey design and 5 bridge branches. This package was implemented before the Lunar New Year of At Ty, up to now, the implementation rate has reached 12.3% compared to the contract volume.

Currently, the construction unit is digging deep to install drainage pipes, leading to a situation where the road surface is significantly different from the people's house floors, in some places the difference is nearly 2m.

To get into their homes, people have to use high ladders, which seriously affects the daily life and business of households in the area. Many people have had to temporarily close their stores and wait for the project to be completed before they can resume business.

Mr. Pham Xuan Loc, a resident affected by the project, shared: "My house has two fronts so I can still go through the back, but many people do not have another way, which is very inconvenient. I hope the project will be completed soon so that trading will be more convenient. Our job is to do business, the difficulty in traveling has a great impact."

Similar to Mr. Loc's family, about 40 other households in this area are also very worried and want the construction unit to speed up the project progress to stabilize their lives.

According to the households, this is a national key project, so when they are mobilized, they are willing to hand over the land. Despite many inconveniences, they still try to wait and hope that the project will be completed soon, opening up opportunities for trade.

Mr. Pham Quang Vu, a resident of this area, said: "The project was designed and constructed like that, our house was built before that, so now there is a difference. I hope that after the project is completed, the construction unit will have measures to fix it. We just hope that the project will be implemented quickly."

Troubleshooting

Regarding this, the construction unit explained that the road under construction of the drainage culvert is behind the house.

In the past, the terrain was not flat, so people built houses on slopes, using the sloping land below to make basements.

The construction unit is digging deep to install the drainage culvert.

When the Ring Road 3 project was implemented, the back part of the house was converted into a kiosk for rent by the people, leading to a difference in height between the house foundation and the road surface being dug deep for the sewer. After completion and leveling of the road surface, the height of the road surface is expected to be only about 30-40 cm lower than the house foundation, ensuring more convenient travel.

In another section of the XL1 package, the excavation of a drainage ditch also caused a "super thin" house with 1 ground floor and 3 upper floors, located close to the road under construction, to sink. Immediately after discovering the incident, the construction unit mobilized machinery to temporarily support the house to prevent it from collapsing. The entire family living in the house was relocated to another location to ensure safety.

Mr. Trinh Hai Dang, commander of Hai Dang Joint Stock Company (the unit constructing a section of the XL1 package) said that the company has met and listened to the people's complaints about the inconveniences. The contractor is trying to speed up the progress, increase machinery and workers to complete this section of the road soon.

Regarding the construction of drainage culverts close to residential houses, there is a risk of subsidence for houses with very thin foundations on weak geological foundations. The contractor has reported to the investor for adjustment instructions.

"The construction unit has reported to the investor, the supervising consultant, as well as the technical design and construction drawing design units to meet and come up with a plan to move the sewer away from the house. For example, instead of making the sewer on the roadside, it will be placed in the middle of the road. However, the construction cost will change and the implementation time will be extended," said Mr. Dang.

According to the contractor, the XL1 package is expected to be completed in June 2026 to connect with other sections, leading to the opening of Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 with an expected length in 2026. This will be a key traffic route connecting the region, promoting the development of the Southern Key Economic Zone.
