The capital city of Hanoi will spend nearly 990 billion VND (47 million USD) upgrading and expanding a road from Long Bien Bridge to Vinh Tuy Bridge.
The municipal People’s Committee approved in principle the project, which will be implemented between now and 2014.
The project will construct a 2.5-kilometre section from Long Bien Bridge to Tran Quang Khai road and the other, which is 2.2 kilometres long, stretching from an intersection between Tran Quang Khai and Tran Hung Dao roads to Vinh Tuy Bridge.
The Committee assigned relevant departments to work closely together to ensure the progress of the project.
