Construction of the Can Gio Bridge, connecting Ho Chi Minh City’s outlying namesake district with the city’s center, will start in 2022.

Deputy Minister of Transport Bui Hoa An announced the construction schedule at a meeting with the district’s voters on Monday, saying the completion date is set for late 2025.

He expressed the hope that locals owning lands could reach agreement with authorities to hand them over so that the work could be implemented on schedule.

The VND5.3 trillion ($230 million) bridge will replace the Binh Khanh ferry as the means to connect the coastal Can Gio District with the rest of HCMC.

The cable-stayed bridge will be 3.4 kilometers (2.1 miles) long and have four lanes and navigational clearance of 55 meters (180 feet).

It will start at the intersection of roads 15B and 2 in Nha Be District’s Phu Xuan urban area, span the Soai Rap and Cha Va rivers and end on Rung Sac Street in Can Gio District.

City authorities had initially thought of building it under a combined build-operate-transfer and build-transfer model.

But the National Assembly passed a law on public-private partnerships last June that does not feature the latter model.

A taxiway will be closed for repairs at Hanoi’s Noi Bai International Airport from September 11 to 16.

The work would be carried out at night so that flights are not affected, Nguyen Huy Duong, deputy director of the airport, said.

S3 was temporarily closed on August 9 on safety grounds, but was partially reopenedon August 19, Noi Bai authorities said.

A section of the runway 1B also needs repairs, and so will only be used between 1 a.m. and 7 a.m. between September 11 and 13.

Potholes of up to a meter and cracks of 30-50 centimeters were found on the runway this month, the authorities said.

The design of the Cat Lai bridge connecting HCMC and Dong Nai Province.

Prime Minister Nguyen Xuan Phuc has approved the construction of a bridge connecting HCMC and Dong Nai Province at a cost of VND7.2 trillion ($310 million).

Work on the six-lane Cat Lai Bridge, which will stretch 3.8 kilometers, is expected to start next year.

Residents today take the Cat Lai ferry to travel between District 2, HCMC, and Nhon Trach District in Dong Nai, but the ferry can no longer accommodate current travel needs.

Traffic on the highway that connects HCMC with the districts of Long Thanh and Dau Giay in Dong Nai Province is also exceeding its capacity.

Dong Nai hopes the Cat Lai Bridge will help turn Nhon Trach District into an extension of HCMC suburbs.

HCMC will handle the section of the road, 623 meters long in District 2, that will lead to the bridge, as a build-transfer (BT) project.

The main part of the bridge, of 650 meters, is set to be a build-operate-transfer (BOT) project executed by Dong Nai. If this doesn’t work out, the province will incorporate a build-transfer (BT) project. The southern province will also be in charge of the second section of the 263m long road in Nhon Trach that leads to the bridge.

Metro trains delivery to take another four months

The arrival of the first train for Hanoi’s second metro line has been delayed to next July, instead of March, as previously announced.

Designing and constructing the 10 trains for the Nhon-Hanoi Railway Station route is now 34.4 percent completed, according to a new report of the Hanoi Metropolitan Railway Management Board (MRB).

The MRB is pushing the French contractor to speed up work so that the trains can start running in April 2021 on the elevated tracks. Work on the tracks is 99.5 percent complete.

The trains will have a maximum speed of 80 kilometers per hour (kph), but will operate at an average speed of 35 kph.

MRB has said that 35 kph is faster than the capital’s public buses’ speed of 16-18 kph and Hanoi Bud Rapid Transit (BRT) of 23 kph.

With a width of up to 2.95 meters and length of 80-100 meters, each train will be able to carry 850-950 passengers.

The MRB last month began moving and cutting down trees near the Hanoi Railway Station downtown to make area for an underground station.

The Nhon-Hanoi Railway Station route, the capital’s second metro line after Cat Linh-Ha Dong route, would run 12.5 kilometers from the Nhon area in the western district of Nam Tu Liem, via Kim Ma Street to Hanoi Railway Station on Le Duan Street.

It will run 8.5 kilometers on elevated tracks through eight stations and the remaining four kilometers underground. The underground track is scheduled to begin operations in 2023.

MRB has said that in the initial period, a train will arrive every five minutes, and later every two minutes.

The project has a total investment of VND36 trillion ($1.56 billion), which has been sourced from official development assistance (ODA) funds, and is now 50 percent complete.

Hanoi’s first metro line, connecting Cat Linh Station in downtown Dong Da District to the Yen Nghia Station in Ha Dong District, is said to be 99 percent complete, having missed its deadline several times.

The city said last month it would borrow $1.48 billion from ODA funds to build a new metro section in 2021.
