Through many ups and downs, historical events, this bridge has gradually been imprinted in the memories of every citizen of Lao Cai city".
Having to regularly cross Pho Moi or Coc Leu bridges to get to work near the Lao Cai border economic zone, Ms. Duong Thi Ngoc (Kim Tan ward) shared: "These bridges make people's travel much more convenient and faster. We are also looking forward to trying out the Phu Thinh bridge under construction."
