A total of VND15 trillion ($652.2 million) was provided, the first instalment in late 2018 and the second in early 2019, or nearly two-thirds of the total capital value.
A number of related infrastructure projects have also been planned by the Government and the Ministry of Transport.
The most significant among them are two arterial roads, Route No.1 connecting National Highway No.51 with the airport, and Route No.2 between the Ho Chi Minh City-Long Thanh-Dau Giay Expressway and Route No.1 (running parallel to National Highway No.51).
In 2018-20 Dong Nai has spent more than VND33.3 trillion ($1.45 billion) to improve transport infrastructure to serve this pivotal airport project.
Since September 2019 Dong Nai has been reporting good news in quick succession, with the provincial authorities and Government approving many important infrastructure works such as the construction of Cat Lai Port to replace a ferry pier and Huong Lo No.2 road between the Long Thanh-Dau Giay Highway and Vam Cai Sut Bridge.
Thorough preparations are being made to ensure that the airport work can begin in 2021.
