The People’s Committee of Hai Phong City in northern Vietnam on Friday started work on the Do Muoi street project, which will be extended to the VSIP arterial road, at an estimated cost of over VND1 trillion (US$42.6 million).
The project will contribute to realizing the city’s orientation to develop its traffic infrastructure in a synchronous and modern manner and to improve the cityscape, building an exemplary new countryside and boosting the local digital transformation.
The street project was commenced after Hai Phong began work on another project to develop a political and administrative center and traffic and other technical infrastructure systems in the North Cam River New Urban Area.
Le Anh Quan, standing vice-chairman of the People’s Committee of Hai Phong, said the project was expected to improve the connectivity between the city’s downtown area and Thuy Nguyen District.

The Do Muoi street project was designed to be nearly 1.6 kilometers long and over 50 meters wide.
The investment in the project will be sourced from the city’s budget.
Of the total, over VND698 billion ($29.7 million) will be spent on site clearance. In particular, 51.17 hectares of land will be taken back from more than 1,300 households, organizations, and individuals.
The project is expected to be complete in 2024.
