The route concentrates many places for entertainment, dining, and recreation... attracting a large number of people and domestic and international tourists to visit and experience. |
 |
The pilot project to improve traffic and renovate street space on some routes in the central area of Ho Chi Minh City is being implemented by the Department of Transport in coordination with the Vietnam - Japan Traffic Planning Expert Group. |
 |
This is a new approach to exploiting and promoting street space, suitable for the urban characteristics of the city center. |
 |
| The road is often occupied for purposes such as motorbike parking, trading and business, causing difficulties for pedestrian traffic. |
 |
Therefore, urban renovation and beautification, creating safe and comfortable spaces for pedestrians, and implementing some forms of activities on the streets and sidewalks are necessary. |
 |
Sidewalks will be renovated, each side will be 5m wide, opening space for pedestrians. Arrange business locations, arrange auxiliary works, utility works and walkways for pedestrians, living space at certain times... More street trees will be planted. |
 |
The roadway is adjusted from 8m to 5m, organizing mixed traffic for pedestrians and motor vehicles. The route also has a speed limit, and at certain times vehicles may be prohibited. In phase 1, parking spaces on the road and sidewalks of the area around Thai Van Lung street will be arranged. In phase 2, a proposal to build high-rise parking garages will be studied and proposed nearby. |
