Without New Year's Day holiday 2026, hundreds of workers and engineers still maintain the working schedule and closely follow the construction site of Hong Ha bridge (Sub-project 3 - construction of the expressway in the form of public-private partnership under the Ring Road 4 project in Hanoi Capital Region).
Hong Ha bridge is about 4.377km long, crossing Ta Hong and Huu Hong dikes, with the starting point in Me Linh commune and the ending point in O Dien commune.
According to the design, the cross-section of Hong Ha bridge is 24.5m wide, designed with 4 lanes for motorized vehicles and arranged with one lane for motorbikes and rudimentary vehicles on each side.
Prestressed reinforced concrete bridge, including spans for casting spans (main span 135m), Super T access spans, 18 spans for casting spans crossing rivers (main span 90m), 3 spans for casting spans crossing Huu Hong dike (main span 90m).
By the end of December 2025, 2 communes Me Linh and O Dien have handed over 100% of clean land to the contractor constructing Hong Ha bridge.
