One of Phnom Penh’s largest districts is being targeted for comprehensive infrastructure developments due to its strategic location in the south of the capital.

Comprising four communes which spread across the south-eastern edge of the city, many projects have already been undertaken in 2017. New roads, canal refurbishment and sewer system renovations were all undertaken this year but the swift pace of development in the locale – especially with the opening of Hun Sen Blvd – means City Hall has big plans for the area.

A new two-phase pumping station is set to be installed between Boeung Tumpun and Hun Sen Blvd to improve flood control in the area, especially since the filling of Boeung Trabek.

There are also plans for two or three new flyovers in Meachey coomune; in the notoriously congested area between Hun Sen Blvd, St. 271and Monivong Blvd; and another in Canadia Park across Veng Sreng Blvd and Okhna Duong Ngaeb St.
