Infrastructure in Chaom Chau and Khan Kambol
Chaom Chau is located close to the flyover that leads from the centre of Phnom Penh to the airport. It is at the junction of Russian Boulevard, and National Roads 3 and 4. Due to its proximity to the airport there are height restrictions on the properties that can be built here. The area suffers from traffic congestion especially around rush hour.
Correspondingly, Khan Kambol has the completed Win Win Boulevard ring road which provides speedy access to western, northern and soon southern districts of Phnom Penh. It also has access to the new Phnom Penh to Sihanoukville expressway, opening up the south of Cambodia and its beaches. Kambol is only five to 10 minutes from the flyover into downtown Phnom Penh.
Kambol is close to the airport, but is a quieter area than Chaom Chau and suffers from less traffic congestion. Property prices in Kambol are lower than in Chaom Chau due to the district being slightly further from downtown Phnom Penh.
