As one of seven bridges spanning the Red River in Hanoi, the 8.9km bridge with eight lanes will be a key traffic route for the capital as it will link Noi Bai, a major port of entry, and downtown Hanoi.

The construction of a 12km long road connecting Nhat Tan and Noi Bai is keeping with schedule. Once completed, the new route will shorten the time to travel from Hanoi to Noi Bai’s new Terminal 2 by half.

The bridge is expected to open for technical trial run in October.

Meanwhile, 86 percent of the building of Terminal T2, which is designed to serve 10 million passengers a year, has been completed. The terminal will also be put on the test two months later.
