They will see the construction and widening of roads and bus terminals.

Dầu Tiếng is located in the northwest of Bình Dương Province on the border with Bình Phước and Tây Ninh provinces.

It is situated along the Mỹ Phước - Tân Vạn Expressway and provincial highways, a crucial transportation artery connecting the Mỹ Phước industrial zone in Bình Dương Province with Đồng Nai Province and HCM City.
