The 2.2 kilometre, VND5.3 trillion (USD222.68 million) Thu Thiem 4 Bridge linking Thu Thiem New Urban Area with District 7 is slated to begin in 2025 and completed in 2028.
Once put into operation, the six-lane bridge will help mitigate the traffic pressure for HCM City’s centre.
Binh Tien Bridge and road project have a total investment of VND4.1 trillion (USD172.26 million), and would travel through Binh Chanh District and districts 6 and 8.
The feasibility study of the 3.2-kilometre project will be finished this year. Construction on it is scheduled to be started in 2024.
Meanwhile, work on the Tan Ky-Tan Quy Bridge will be resumed this year following the city’s decision to invest an additional VND491 billion for the project.
By late 2018, 70 percent of the project had been completed, but the project was halted due to site clearance problems.
The city is taking measures to deal with project difficulties. Construction of the project is slated to be concluded in 2024 to improve the traffic flow for the city’s northwestern gateway.
