“Hai Phong Urban Transport Development” project has recently been kicked off with the package CW2A to construct Dong Khe bridge and a road section from Km9+155 to km10+600.
The project funded by the World Bank (WB) will be developed under 3 components, of which the most important one is to build a trunk road on the East – West transport corridor from Bac Son commune (An Duong district) to Nam Hai ward (Hai An district). The trunk road will connect Hai Phong seaport to the Highway No.10 toward East-West direction. Along this trunk road, 2 main bridges, namely Dong Khe bridge (in Quan Tru ward, Kien An district) and Niem bridge No.2, with a total width 50.5 metres divided for 6 motorway lanes and 2 local lanes will be constructed.
The project aims to facilitate vehicles travelling in the city and transporting goods from outside to Hai Phong port system via a new East-West linkage which connects with the existing North-South main roads. When completed, the project is expected to create a synchronous connection of modern transport infrastructure, and enhance Hai Phong’s position corresponding to its recognition of a “first-ranking city of national level”, a “key locality for marine economic development” and a “growth pole of the Northern dynamic economic region”.
