HÀ NộI – Hà Nội will build a flyover over the An Dương-Thanh Niên intersection to meet traffic demand and reduce congestion in the city.
The project also includes modifications to the structure of a section of the Hữu Hồng dyke, according to the Hà Nội Traffic Project Management Board.
The flyover, estimated to cost more than VNĐ311.9 billion (some US$7 million), is 271m in length and 10m in width.
Work is expected to begin next month and will be completed in about seven months.
Nguyễn Chí Cường, deputy director of the project management board, said the project implementation would ensure requirements on architecture, anti-flooding and easing traffic congestion in the capital.
Earlier, the Hà Nội’s People’s Committee and the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development established a project examination council of scientists and consulted with the public before starting construction.
The flyover will facilitate traffic flow to the Nội Bài international airport through Nhật Tân Bridge. – VNS
