(HBO) – The construction of Hoa Binh 3 Bridge commenced in 2016, which is expected to reduce traffic overload on Hoa Binh 1 bridge and meet the city’s future development demand. The People’s Committee of Hoa Binh city is proposing measures to remove difficulties for land clearance and calital mobilisation, while directing the contractor to work towards joining the final segments of Hoa Binh 3 Bridge in July 2018.
Contractor of the project utilises all resources to accelerate
the construction of Hoa Binh 3 Bridge.
A total area of 41,721 sq. m.
must be cleared for the Hoa Binh 3 bridge and its approaching roads, affecting 73
households and five units, with 40 households relocated.
Vice Chairman of Hoa Binh
city’s People’s Committee Pham Quoc Thang said despite financial difficulty, the
committee is directing the contractor to mobilise all available human resources
and machinery to connect the last segments of Hoa Binh 3 bridge in July 2018. By
now, 112 billion VND worth of construction work has been completed out of the
total 322 billion VND estimated for the bridge part, with 66.9 billion VND already
disbursed.
Following the direction of the
municipal People’s Committee, the contractor is making maximum use of human
resources with three consecutive working shifts. Total work load to be implemented
this year is projected at 274.5 billion VND.
Some 295 billion VND is needed
to complete the project within 2018. Meanwhile, capital from the source of International
Development Assistance (IDA) for the programme is planned at 21 billion VND for
the 2018-2020 period. To speed up the progress, the municipal People’s
Committee has asked the provincial People’s Committee to advance 21 billion VND
from the local budget to pay installation costs for the contractor as
regulated. The city’s People’s Committee will refund the money after receiving
the IDA capital. The committee also proposed the provincial People’s Committee
allocate 22.29 billion VND for the northern mountainous
urban programme in Hoa Binh city.

Once a mountainous province facing many challenges, Hoa Binh has, after more than a decade of implementing the national target programme on new-style rural area development, emerged as a bright spot in Vietnam’s northern midland and mountainous region. In the first quarter of 2025, the province recorded positive results, paving the way for Hoa Binh to enter a phase of accelerated growth with a proactive and confident mindset.
Hoa Binh province is steadily advancing its agricultural sector through the adoption of high-tech solutions, seen as a sustainable path for long-term development.
The steering committee for key projects of Hoa Binh province convened on May 14 to assess the progress of major ongoing developments
A delegation of Hoa Binh province has attended the "Meet Korea 2025" event, recently held by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Embassy of the Republic of Korea (RoK) in Vietnam, the Korea Trade-Investment Promotion Agency, and the People's Committee of Hung Yen province.
Hoa Binh province joined Vietnam’s national "One Commune, One Product” (OCOP) programme in 2019, not simply as a mountainous region following central policy, but with a clear vision to revive the cultural and agricultural values in its villages and crops.
From just 16 certified products in its inaugural year to 158 by early 2025, the One Commune One Product (OCOP) programme in Hoa Binh province has followed a steady and strategic path. But beyond the numbers, it has reawakened local heritage, turning oranges, bamboo shoots, brocade, and herbal remedies into branded, market-ready goods - and, more profoundly, transformed how local communities value and present their own cultural identity.
