Ward 14
People in Binh Dong wharf have lived in alleys for many years dating back to when Tau Hu canal is the busiest marketplace for merchants. Alley have emerged into their style of living such as using the alley roads as it their properties due to the lack of space in their own houses. There are many uses for the “shared space” in the alley like parking, selling food, gathering, coffee shops,...
These activities can take up half the width of the alley, therefore, although many alley are 4-4,5m wide, ambulances or fire trucks have a difficult time to enter the alleys. This is a threat to the safety of the dwellers area.
