The project, which commemorates the 81st anniversary of the August Revolution and National Day on September 2, sees contractors and construction units mobilizing maximum manpower, vehicles, and machinery to expedite completion. On August 31, according to Sai Gon Giai Phong Newspaper reporters, construction at the Cach Mang Thang Tam Road interchange was progressing swiftly, with Lieutenant Colonel Pham Quang Nghia of the Truong Son 6 Executive Board reporting that the unit had been working continuously throughout the holiday. The focus was on finishing the hot-mix asphalt surfacing of the overpass, crucial for a seamless connection to the Binh Goi Bridge approach road. Lieutenant Colonel Pham praised the contractor's proactive efforts to mobilize additional modern equipment and increase workforce numbers, determined to complete all asphalt surfacing works during this phase. Workers, including Hoang Duc Quyen of Truong Son Construction Corporation, expressed their commitment to working tirelessly under the sun to accelerate progress and ensure the project's timely completion. Similar intensified efforts are underway on parallel road and the approach road to the Binh Goi Bridge. The dedication and determination of construction personnel at the Ring Road 3 sites are crucial in accelerating progress, bringing the key infrastructure closer to completion and boosting urban development in Ho Chi Minh City and the broader southern economic region.",
