Thanh Xuan 25 Road construction delays cause safety hazards in Ho Chi Minh City

The expansion project of Thanh Xuan 25 Road in Ho Chi Minh City has remained unfinished for nearly three years, causing significant safety hazards for local residents. The 2.8 km road, which involves an investment of nearly 490 billion VND, is expected to be completed by the end of 2025.

Currently, the construction site is characterized by deep potholes, mud, and dust. Many drainage manholes lack proper covers, creating dangerous traps for commuters. Residents have reported frequent accidents, including falls that have resulted in broken limbs. Local authorities have attempted temporary repairs using gravel, but these measures have proven ineffective against heavy rain and vehicle traffic.

The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Construction stated it will urgently survey the site and take measures against the construction unit to ensure public safety.
