VGP - Nhat Tan, Viet Nam’s biggest cable-stayed bridge and Vo Nguyen Giap road opened to traffic on January 4 have become a new symbol of Ha Noi.
Nhat Tan Bridge will help deal with traffic jam on the Thang Long-Noi Bai route and reduce travelling costs from the centre of the capital city to adjacent provinces.
Construction of the 8.93 km bridge, one of seven bridges spanning the Red River, started in March 2009 at a total cost of VND13.6 trillion ($639.2 million).
With eight lanes, Nhat Tan Bridge is one of the three bridges having the largest number of suspension spans in the world, built by Japan’s cutting-edge technologies.
The 12.1 km road, which was constructed at a cost of more than 6.7 billion VND, is named after General Vo Nguyen Giap. It will help halve the time to travel from the capital city to Noi Bai Airport’s Terminal T2
