More than 4 km of National Highway 50 parallel road connecting Ho Chi Minh City with Long An has a scale of 6 lanes and has taken shape. At the construction site, engineers and workers are working hard, racing to meet the progress every day.
The project to build and expand National Highway 50 through Binh Chanh District is a key traffic project of Ho Chi Minh City. This project has a construction investment of nearly 1,500 billion VND with the starting point of the route intersecting with Nguyen Van Linh Street and the end point bordering Long An Province.
The entire project has a total length of about 6.92 km, including a section parallel to the existing National Highway 50, about 4.3 km long, and a 2.56 km section of the existing National Highway 50, expanding the road surface from 4 to 6 lanes, extending to Ong Thin Bridge area (HCMC borders Long An).

The Ho Chi Minh City Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board (Traffic Board) said that the National Highway 50 construction and expansion project is implementing 4 construction packages for the parallel section of National Highway 50, from the intersection of Nguyen Van Linh Street to Km 4+200. In the photo is the starting point of the project, the intersection with Nguyen Van Linh Street. |

After more than a year of construction, the parallel road section of National Highway 50 has taken shape with 6 lanes. This nearly 4.3 km long section was started in late 2022 and has now reached about 53% of the volume. |

| In recent days, under the scorching sun, workers have been working hard. The construction site of the VND1,500 billion project to upgrade and expand the national highway from Ho Chi Minh City to Long An always has a force of engineers and workers on duty, even during the Tet holiday. It is expected that the parallel road will be completed in 2024 to help reduce pressure on the existing National Highway 50. |

According to the Traffic Department, the project implementation is going smoothly, only encountering some difficulties due to land issues. Currently, compensation and site clearance work is invested by Binh Chanh District. Up to now, 544/594 households and businesses have agreed to hand over land. |

It is expected that in mid-March, the investor will start 3 construction packages to expand the existing National Highway 50, about 2.56 km long, to the border with Long An province. |

The Traffic Department said that the existing section of Highway 50 expansion has had most of the land handed over by households signing the handover minutes. |

The National Highway 50 expansion project, completed in 2025, will increase the capacity of this route, helping to connect Ho Chi Minh City with Long An province and the Western provinces. At the same time, the project will also strengthen the connection of the southern gateway area of the city with the Ben Luc - Long Thanh expressway and Ring Road 3 in the coming time. Along with that, a complete traffic network will be formed to serve the socio -economic development of Ho Chi Minh City. |
