Half of congestion-prone spots in Saigon to be addressed this yearThe HCMC Department of Transport will focus on dealing with 37 sites prone to traffic congestion, yet the leader of this agency believes only 18 of them can be addressed this year and the rest must wait until the completion of relevant traffic projects. HCMC Vice Chairman Le Van Khoa told the transport department not to let public passenger transport go down as last year. From now until June, the congestion-prone points should be resolved. In 2017, the department will focus on dealing with these congestion-prone points with multiple solutions. He said the HCMC Traffic Safety Committee report had identified the cause but not come up with a solution.
