The 7.30-kilometre bridge will have six lanes. Once completed in 2028, it will add to Phu My and Binh Khanh bridges to become the biggest suspension cable bridge in HCM City. It will also help connect the south of HCM City and Can Gio District.
The second largest project is VND6.03 trillion Thu Thiem 4 Bridge. The 2.16-km bridge will have six lanes, with the main span having a clearance of 45 metres. This design will allow large vessels on the Saigon River to easily travel under the bridge.
The bridge is slated for completion in 2028, helping to shorten travel time from Thu Duc City to the districts of Binh Thanh, Nha Be, Binh Chanh and districts 7 and 8.
Meanwhile, the VND1 trillion pedestrian bridge over the Saigon River will link Thu Duc City and District 1.
The 500-metre bridge will be between Ba Son Bridge and the Saigon River Tunnel. The design incorporates the nipa palm leaf, a common sight in the southern region.
The bridge will feature dedicated lanes for pedestrians, cyclists, wheelchairs, and ambulances in case of emergencies.
