The Dong Nai People’s Committee is set to enhance transportation infrastructure with major road projects linking Long Thanh International Airport to key highways.
Preparations are underway for a groundbreaking ceremony on July 10 for three significant road projects in Dong Nai Province. These projects will cover over 111 km and include upgrades to DT769, as well as the construction of DT770B and DT773 roads, with a total investment exceeding VND 11.8 trillion (approximately USD 409 million).
Major Road Projects to Boost Connectivity
The three road projects are pivotal for improving access to Long Thanh International Airport. DT769, the most crucial of the three, will be upgraded to a Class II highway, spanning 29 km at a cost of more than VND 2.8 trillion (about USD 106 million). This road will feature six traffic lanes and is designed for a speed of 80 kph.
DT770B will extend 42.7 km and is budgeted at approximately VND 4.7 trillion (around USD 179 million). It will initially consist of six traffic lanes and two mixed-traffic lanes. The project has already notified 775 affected households, with land surveys completed for 699 households.
DT773 will upgrade a 39-km route, requiring the acquisition of over 224 hectares of land, with a projected cost of about VND 4.3 trillion (around USD 164 million). This road will also be designed for speeds of 80 kph.
