After more than a year of construction, the ‘Thuy Van Coastal Road Beautification Project’ in Vung Tau City, Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, was recently inaugurated. With a total public investment of over VND 1,068 billion, this large-scale coastal infrastructure project consists of two core components: the renovation and upgrading of technical infrastructure along the 3.2-km Thuy Van Road; and the construction of Thuy Van Park over an area of approximately 19.21 ha.

\n\n

The Thuy Van Park development is divided into two zones: the renovation of certain sections within Bai Sau Park (2.15 ha), from Phan Chu Trinh Street to the existing Tourist Support and Management Centre opposite La Van Cau Street; and the construction of an entirely new coastal park (17.06 ha) stretching from San Ho Xanh Resort to Nguyen An Ninh Street.

\n\n

Within the overall scope, Package No. 12 undertaken by Vietnamese contractor Coteccons includes the two main parts: renovation and upgrading of the technical infrastructure along the 3.2-km Thuy Van Road; and construction of the Thuy Van Park covering approximately 19.21 ha, completed in April 2025.

\n\n

The tasks executed by Coteccons play a pivotal role in shaping a modern and integrated coastal public space, including Public Service Station No. 2 (Mussel), Public Service Station No. 3 (Sea Snail), and the artistic canopy structures. These facilities adopt glass fibre reinforced concrete (GFRC) technology in both design and construction, shared Coteccons.

\n\n

“Unlike traditional concrete that relies on sand, stone and gravel aggregates, GFRC significantly reduces environmental impacts associated with natural material extraction, while offering superior mechanical properties. Its lightweight nature enables complex and refined architectural forms that would be difficult to achieve with conventional concrete,” explained the contractor.

\n\n

Based on phased design approvals and site handovers, Coteccons applied a rolling construction approach, implementing multiple work packages in parallel to optimise resources and strictly control project timelines. At peak periods, nearly 1,400 engineers and workers, along with modern machinery and equipment, were mobilised, operating in three continuous shifts across key areas to ensure overall progress and construction quality.

\n\n

Vo Hoang Lam, deputy CEO of Coteccons, said, “The Thuy Van Coastal Road Beautification Project is a particularly important landscape infrastructure project, not only in terms of coastal urban renewal but also due to its stringent requirements for construction organisation, quality, schedule and safety, especially as it was implemented while ensuring the city’s daily activities and tourism operations.”

\n\n

In addition to the Thuy Van Coastal Road Beautification Project in Vung Tau, Coteccons is currently delivering several large-scale infrastructure projects nationwide, notably the APEC Phu Quoc Complex, Phu Quoc International Airport expansion serving APEC 2027, as well as major works at Long Thanh International Airport and Gia Binh International Airport.
