The province strives to complete the expressway section in October 2025 and complete the entire section passing through the province in 2026

The entire Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 is about 76.34km long, passing through Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai and Tay Ninh provinces, divided into 8 component projects, of which the section passing through Tay Ninh belongs to component project 7, about 6.84km long.

Component project 7 has a total investment of 3,040 billion VND, expected to be basically completed in 2025, put into operation from 2026. According to Mr. Tran Thien Truc - Deputy Director of Long An Construction Investment Project Management Board, by the end of July 2025, the project was deployed simultaneously in many packages. Of which, 3 main packages (XL1, XL2, XL3) have positive progress, with construction volume reaching about 79.3% of contract value.

Package XL1 (expressway construction) has completed the treatment of weak soil, basically constructed the crushed stone layer, is paving the road surface and constructing Rach Rich bridge. It is expected to be fully completed and technically open to traffic by October 31, 2025.

Package XL2 (construction of viaduct, river crossing and parallel road) also recorded positive progress with over 78% of the contract value. Most of the girders and piers are completed, and they are currently paving the bridge deck. The parallel road on both sides has been paved with crushed stone, filled with sand and installed with a drainage system.

Package XL3 (construction of the final intersection connecting Ben Luc - Long Thanh Expressway) has reached 79.64% of the contract construction value and will be completed in October 2025. In addition, additional packages such as XL3A (intersection), XL5 (traffic safety, fences, lighting) and XL4A, XL4B (connecting people's lives) are being actively implemented. The Intelligent Transport System package is being prepared and is expected to be constructed in the third quarter of 2025.

Workers are working hard to construct Ring Road 3 in Ho Chi Minh City

The relocation of technical infrastructure has also achieved many positive results, completing 8/11 locations for medium and low voltage power relocation, continuing construction on Tan Long route, Provincial Road 830C, branch L. The work of raising the clearance of 500kV high voltage power lines is under construction and will be completed in December 2025.

“The total capital allocated to implement component project 7 to date has reached 2,252 billion VND, including central and local capital. Of which, 100% of the capital plan for 2023 and 2024 has been disbursed; in 2025, 238.6 billion VND has been disbursed, reaching 27.22% of the plan,” Mr. Tran Thien Truc informed.

In particular, the section connecting to Ben Luc – Long Thanh Expressway was completed and handed over to VEC on May 15, 2025. Ben Luc – Long Thanh Expressway organized a site inspection on July 31, 2025 to prepare for traffic opening.

With the close direction of the Government, the close coordination between the Central and local levels, and the efforts of investors and construction units, the Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 project through the province is being implemented urgently and resolutely.

The main packages are all on schedule, with some items expected to shorten construction time by 1 to 3 months. Capital disbursement is well controlled, ensuring continuous capital flow for construction.

The province has identified the project as an infrastructure investment task and a regional development goal, creating a boost for the local socio-economy. With high determination, the entire project will be completed in 2026, contributing to realizing the strategic vision of urban, industrial and logistics development in the Southern region./.
