The Hanoi municipal government has approved a project worth VND2.413 trillion (USD114.7 million) to upgrade Belt Road No. 3 linking Mai Dich to Hoa Binh Park and Noi Bai Airport.

Pham Van Dong road will be expanded to 68 metres
Under the project, Pham Van Dong Road will be expanded to 68 metres while two overpasses will be built at the junctions with Hoang Quoc Viet and Co Nhue roads.
The project will be carried out under the BT (Build-Transfer) model for two years.
The city’s government requested the investors, the Dong Da-Viet Duc Investment Joint Stock Company and Lilama Urban Development and Construction Investment Joint Stock Company to co-ordinate with local authorities to speed up procedures for the project.
Authorities in localities that the project runs through must be responsible for facilitating site clearance and compensation in a bid to ensure the project’s schedule.
When completed, the belt road is expected to become a key transportation route connecting the city centre to Noi Bai International Airport.
