Addressing the event, Deputy Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc highlighted the efforts of the city’s authorities and people in lifting the face of the city, particularly in building infrastructure and new residential areas.
The “Rong” (dragon) bridge is 666m long and more than 36m wide while the Tran Thi Ly bridge is 731m long and 34.5m wide. The two were built at a total cost of more than VND3.4 trillion.
The bridges linking the city’s centre with Son Tra and Ngu Hanh Son districts are expected to meet transport needs even in the years to come.
