The Department of Construction shall carry out information and propaganda work before and during the implementation of the inter-modal ticket system; issue instructions for implementation during the period when the automatic fare collection (AFC) system has not been synchronously deployed across the network and the period when the entire network is synchronously deployed, ensuring consistency and avoiding interruptions in the implementation of the multi-modal inter-modal ticket plan for the public passenger transport system.

During the implementation process, the city assigned the Department of Construction to preside over and coordinate with the Department of Finance and relevant units to regularly review unreasonable contents (if any), synthesize, advise, report, and propose to the City People's Committee for timely consideration, adjustment, and supplementation.
