The Phan Thiet – Dau Giay expressway passing through Ham Tan is heavily flooded.

Due to prolonged heavy rain, by the early morning of July 29th, water from the roadside had entered the Phan Thiet - Dau Giay expressway, specifically the low-lying section at Km 25 in Ham Tan district.

This location is about 2km from the National Highway 55 intersection. At the scene, around 2 AM on July 29th, the water level on the highway rose significantly, reaching nearly 1 meter in the deepest section. Many vehicles were hesitant to pass through. Several trucks that were driving through were lifted by the water, drifted to the side of the road, and are currently half-submerged and stuck at the scene.

The highway through Ham Tan is heavily flooded.

Numerous vehicles were unable to pass through the flooded section, causing traffic congestion on the highway.

In that area, vehicles lined up in long queues on the Phan Thiet – Dau Giay expressway. By morning, the water had receded slightly but was still about 0.5 meters high. Vehicles moved slowly through the flooded area. Low-clearance vehicles had to wait and did not dare to pass.

Major Hoang Xuan An – Team Leader of Highway Traffic Control Team No. 6 under Department 8, Traffic Police Department, said that as soon as they received the information, Highway Traffic Control Team No. 6 dispatched forces to regulate traffic at the Ba Bau intersection with the Dau Giay – Phan Thiet expressway and the intersection in Xuan Loc district ( Dong Nai province ) to request vehicles traveling on National Highway 1A not to enter the expressway to avoid causing further congestion.
