The Nguyen Khoai bridge - road project is nearly 5 km long, connecting districts 7, 4, 1, with an investment capital of more than 3,700 billion VND, helping to open more directions connecting the South with the center of Ho Chi Minh City.

The project has just been reported by the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Transport and will soon be submitted to the City People's Council for approval of the investment policy. Previously, the project was approved in 2017 with a total capital of 1,250 billion VND. Due to the change in construction scale, the project cost has now increased to 3,725 billion VND.

According to the pre-feasibility study, the project starts from D1 street (Him Lam residential area, district 7), then crosses Te canal through district 4 and continues on high along Nguyen Khoai street, through Ben Nghe canal connecting to Vo Van Kiet Avenue, District 1.

On the last section connecting through District 1, the main bridge section crosses Ben Nghe canal and then follows two branches N7 and N8 around to Vo Van Kiet street.

The two branches N5 and N6 also help vehicles from Nguyen Khoai bridge get to and from other lanes of Vo Van Kiet Avenue.

On the other side of Te canal in District 7, two branches N1 and N2 were also built for vehicles to go up and down from Nguyen Khoai bridge to Tran Xuan Soan street.

At each branch there are stairs connecting the routes below.

When the project is formed, from Saigon South through the city center there will be a new connection direction, reducing traffic pressure on existing routes.

According to the plan, the Nguyen Khoai project, after being approved for adjustments, will start construction in the fourth quarter of 2024, and be fully completed 3 years later.

In addition to the above project, Ho Chi Minh City is building an underpass at the intersection of Nguyen Van Linh - Nguyen Huu Tho, District 7, to help reduce congestion at the key intersection of the southern gateway. At the same time, to increase traffic connection for the above area, Thu Thiem 4 Bridge (connecting District 7 with Thu Thiem New Urban Area) is being planned by the city to invest with a total capital of 5,000 billion VND.
