The construction of the Thuan An sea-crossing bridge in Thua Thien Hue Province, Vietnam is expected to be completed by the end of 2024. The structure is expected to open to traffic in April 2025. The bridge, which spans 2.36 km and is 20 meters wide with four lanes, will be the longest sea-crossing bridge in Vietnam.
As of August 2024, 45 out of 52 piers have been completed, with the two main tower pillars on piers T26 and T27 scheduled for completion by September 2024. Approximately 60 per cent of the contract value has been achieved, with 18 of the 36 spans already connected.
The project, funded by VND2.4 trillion from the state budget, aims to enhance transport links between the central coast’s sports and industrial parks and is expected to attract more investment to Thua Thien Hue. Once completed, the bridge will connect to the national coastal road, further improving regional connectivity.
