Long Thanh Airport construction pushes ahead through National Day holiday
Thousands of workers remained on site at the Long Thanh International Airport project on August 31, pressing ahead with construction throughout Vietnam's National Day holiday in an effort to keep the major infrastructure project on schedule.
Throughout Vietnam's National Day holiday, the workforce at Long Thanh International Airport continued their construction efforts, maintaining momentum on the major infrastructure project. Significant progress had been made within the passenger terminal, with key elements such as the skylight roofing, customs processing areas, baggage handling, check-in counters, and the automated aircraft docking guidance fully or nearly finished.
Outside the terminal, site crews worked under the scorching sun, compacting roads and laying asphalt to complete the airport's internal infrastructure. The fire station was also taking shape, with roofing and technical components being installed. Local worker Ha Ngoc Dat, who had been on the job for over a year, expressed the team's commitment to keeping the project on track during the holiday breaks.
The airport's management board had instructed contractors to intensify work during weekends and public holidays, requiring detailed plans to outline tasks, schedules, staffing, machinery, and safety protocols for each construction phase.
