en.Wedoany.com Reported - Vietnam's Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3, a strategic inter-regional traffic artery, has now achieved approximately 76% overall project progress. Construction units are concentrating manpower and resources to accelerate the work, striving to achieve full-line traffic by the end of 2026, in order to alleviate traffic congestion and drive economic growth in the southern region.
At the approximately 6km-long Package XL6 (passing through the former Cu Chi, Hoc Mon, and Binh Chanh areas), a consortium of five contractors is opening multiple work fronts. Hundreds of workers and dozens of machinery units are operating around the clock in a "three shifts, four teams" model to ensure the project stays on schedule. The progress of this package has currently reached about 73%.
According to the transport management authority, the cumulative completed output value across all packages of Ring Road 3 accounts for about 76% of the total. Among them, progress in the former Thu Duc area is relatively fast, having reached 83%; progress in the former Cu Chi, Hoc Mon, and Binh Chanh areas is approximately 68%.
Certain difficulties have also been encountered during the construction process. Affected by conflicts in the Middle East, international oil prices have risen sharply, leading to increased costs for the extraction and transportation of raw materials such as sand, gravel, and asphalt, putting financial and operational pressure on contractors.
A representative from the Ho Chi Minh City Traffic Management Board stated that Ring Road 3 has a total length of over 76km, passing through Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai Province, and Tay Ninh Province, with a total investment exceeding 75 trillion Vietnamese Dong. Land acquisition and clearance have now been fully completed, with 611 hectares of land handed over. The investor plans to complete the construction of approximately 40km of the main line (out of a total of 70km) before September 30, 2026, and achieve full-line completion by the end of 2026.
