In addition, 4 local suspension bridges and 2 by-pass concrete undergrounds have been in the commune, so the traffic situation is much more convenient. Currently, the commune has also built a hardened bridge over Boi river to the center of the commune. As a result, in a short time people no longer have to worry about the congestion of transporting agricultural products in the rainy season.

With the favorable conditions brought from the local bridges, Hung Thi has conditions for the economic development. The forestry economy is currently the strength of the locality. Mr. Bui Van Duong also adds that there are over 170 ha of planted forests after exploitation in the commune.
