HCM City to begin first river bus route in June
HCM City People’s Committee has called on departments of transport, natural resources and environment and district-level People’s Committees to facilitate the city’s first two river bus routes. The investor, Thuong Nhat Co. Ltd., plans to open the two river bus routes in June. Chairman of the People’s Committee Nguyen Thanh Phong asked officials to hand over piers for the investor to use as river bus stations by April 10. Binh Trieu Pier in Thu Duc District’s Hiep Binh Chanh Ward and Vuon Kieng Pier in District 1 have not yet been handed over to the investor. The committee also approved three more river bus stations in the Thu Thiem urban area, Thu Duc District’s Truong Tho Ward and Tan Cang Port.
