According to Lao Dong Newspaper reporters on the morning of September 30, Phong Chau pontoon bridge was officially opened to traffic. Although only motorbikes, small vehicles and cars can cross the bridge, the number of vehicles is still very crowded.
It can be seen that there was a traffic jam, but only for a short time, when functional forces such as the Army, Police, Traffic Inspectorate and many other forces coordinated to regulate traffic across the bridge.
Along with that, vehicles will be stuck for a short time because cars can only go one way on the bridge, having to wait for the regulation of the authorities. In addition, many people come to the pontoon bridge area out of curiosity, to take photos and videos...
Mr. Bui Van Tuyen - living in Nong Trang ward, Viet Tri city - shared: "I have a shop in Van Xuan commune, Tam Nong district, having to cross the river is a regular thing. I'm so happy to have a pontoon bridge, I don't need to go around Ngoc Thap bridge, it takes dozens of kilometers, waiting a little bit is fine, having a pontoon bridge is great".
