Ben Tre - Rach Mieu 2 Bridge, connecting Tien Giang and Ben Tre, has been officially closed after more than 3 years of construction.

At the end of March 2022, the Rach Mieu 2 bridge project officially started construction. However, after 1 year of implementation, many difficulties have surrounded this key project.

One of the biggest obstacles is site clearance in Tien Giang and Ben Tre provinces, causing many difficulties in construction.

At that time, Mr. Tran Van Hung - Technical Officer of Dinh An Group Co., Ltd., the unit implementing the XL -04 Package of Rach Mieu Bridge Project 2 - said that Tien Giang provincial authorities carry out slow and uneven site clearance work, continuously caused difficulties for the contractor to execute the XL -04 bidding package on Tien Giang. There are construction areas that still have electric cylinders, cables, houses, ... have not been relocated. The ground is not clean, so the contractor is difficult to implement construction.

Here, the Prime Minister asked to complete the project on the occasion of February 2, 2025.
