Work on $331mn bridge project in southern Vietnam to start next month

Authorities in Soc Trang Province, located in southern Vietnam, will break ground on the Dai Ngai bridge project on October 20, with its price tag of over VND8 trillion (US$331.17 million) backed by the state budget, a local official said on Friday morning. Located along National Highway 60, the bridge will span over the Hau River and link Soc Trang’s Long Phu District with neighboring Tra Vinh Province’s Tieu Can District. The entire project will have a total length of over 15 kilometers, five intersections and seven bridges, with Dai Ngai 1 and Dai Ngai 2 being the two main bridges. It is considered a strategic project and a main route connecting Mekong Delta provinces with each other. Like us on Facebook or follow us on Twitter to get the latest news about Vietnam!
