It was in 2012 that lightweight overpasses were put on the table for discussion as traffic congestion became a gravely serious problem at the Thu Duc Intersection in the then Thu Duc District (now part of Thu Duc City) and the Hang Xanh Intersection in Binh Thanh District.

When needed, the overpass can be disassembled and moved to other places. Though many experts were against the idea of building such overpasses, the city decided to go for it given the urgency of solving congestion at the two intersections.

However, the disbursement is lagging behind schedule due to numerous problems, while the deadline for receiving applications, August 15, has already passed, Khai noted at a meeting with ministries and sectors on August 17.
