(HBO) - The Hoa Binh provincial
Department of Transport and contractors held a ceremony on November 4 to start
the construction of Hoa Binh 2 Bridge in Hoa Binh city.
Officials of the
provincial Party Committee, People’s Council, People’s Committee and Vietnam
Fatherland Front Committee, along with the investor, mark the start of work on
Hoa Binh 2 Bridge.
Hoa Binh 2 Bridge will link Thinh Minh wharf in Thinh Lang ward with the
intersection of Den Bridge in Dong Tien ward. It has the total investment of
590.81 billion VND (about 25.4 million USD), funded by the local budget and
other legal sources.
The structure will have the total length of 780
metres, including 497.05 metres of the bridge and 282.95 metres of access roads
at the two ends, with its main span 24 metres wide. The maximum designed speed
on the bridge is 60 km per hour.
The project is invested by the provincial
Department of Transport and will be built by the Trung Chinh Trading and
Construction Co. Ltd, the Lam Viet Construction Investment Co. Ltd, and the
Hanoi Trading, Electrical Technique and Construction Co. Ltd.
Hoa Binh 2 Bridge aims to connect the two banks
of the Da River, helping to ease congestion on Hoa Binh 1 Bridge, minimise
traffic accidents, and meet transport demand. It is also meant to help complete
local transport infrastructure and fuel socio-economic development in Hoa Binh
city.
The facility, a key project of Hoa Binh
province, is scheduled to be built in 33 months. Due to the project’s importance,
the provincial People’s Committee has listed it in the medium-term public
investment plan for 2016 – 2020.

Secretary of the provincial Party Committee and Chairman of the provincial
People’s Committee Bui Van Khanh said to ensure the project is carried out on
schedule, relevant departments, sectors, the People’s Committee of Hoa Binh
city and contractors need to deal with difficulties and problems arising during
the construction in a timely manner, especially those relevant to site
clearance.

promptly, keep a close watch on its progress and quality, ensure safety and
environmental hygiene during construction, and create favourable conditions for
contractors so as to complete the structure ahead of schedule, thereby helping
to develop a modern Hoa Binh city./.

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
Muong Dong in Kim Boi district, one of the four major Muong regions in Hoa Binh province, is harnessing its revolutionary legacy and cultural heritage to drive socio-economic transformation.
Throughout April, the joyful atmosphere of the 50th anniversary of the Liberation of the South and National Reunification spread nationwide. Together with the whole country, residents in Hoa Binh city also expressed their patriotism through meaningful and practical actions.
