CẦN THƠ Many infrastructure projects in Mekong Delta Cần Thơ City have kicked off or have been completed and put into use, according to the city’s ODA project management unit.

The projects are a part of a city development plan and a Mekong Delta development project.

This month the city will start construction on the Cần Thơ River embankment project, which is part of the city's development plan.

The Trần Hoàng Na Bridge project will take bids before the end of July and construction is expected to start at the end of the year.

The bridge project has a total investment of VNĐ700 billion (US$300,000). Nearly 90 per cent of site clearance on Trần Hoàng Na Street in Ninh Kiều District, where the bridge will be located, has been completed.

The city will also start construction on the An Bình resettlement area in Ninh Kiều District by September.

After 22 months of construction, the Quang Trung Bridge will be put into use in November.

Huỳnh Thanh Sử, director of the city's ODA project management unit, said the unit has been working with other units to relocate existing technical infrastructure facilities such as electricity and water works. VNS
