Heavy downpour during rush hour paralyzes Ho Chi Minh City traffic

A heavy rush hour downpour on the afternoon of 30/9 caused severe flooding on numerous roads in Thu Duc and near the Tan Son Nhat gateway, bringing traffic to a standstill.

Around 4h, heavy rain led to severe flooding on many roads in Thu Duc. On To Ngoc Van street, just 10 minutes into the downpour, water levels rose deep enough to submerge vehicle wheels, flowing in strong currents. The intersection of Linh Dong and To Ngoc Van streets experienced the most intense, swift-moving water.

In the alleys along To Ngoc Van street and nearby homes, residents used barriers to prevent water from entering.

Nguyen Van Be, a local resident, explained that this street, with both a stream and a slope, causes water to flow like a waterfall. Residents from two areas quickly came out to warn drivers to avoid flooded sections, assist in pushing stalled vehicles, and direct them to alternative routes.
