The People's Committee of Hau Giang province has just held a meeting to approve the preliminary design plan for the Nguyen Chi Thanh bridge and road project. The project is invested by the Provincial Management Board of Investment and Construction of Transport and Agricultural Works.
The Nguyen Chi Thanh Bridge project has a total length of about 2.6km, expected to have 6 bridge locations, 5 culvert locations; the starting point connects to the existing Nguyen Chi Thanh Street, about 450m from Tran Hung Dao Street and the end point connects to August 19 Street, Vi Tan Commune.
The total expected investment is 1,600 billion VND, including items such as Nguyen Chi Thanh bridge construction, access roads, site clearance costs, etc.
The bridge was built with the design of "Casting a net - pulling a net" using the symbol of snakehead fish and Cau Duc pineapple, using modern architectural language, creating a highlight to attract tourists, suitable for the landscape with the typical architectural form of Hau Giang province.
The Nguyen Chi Thanh Bridge project is expected to gradually complete the traffic infrastructure, connecting Vi Thanh with National Highway 61C to Can Tho; creating a premise to promote economic and social development, expanding the urban space of Vi Thanh City in the two directions of the south and north of Xa No canal.
Regarding land procedures, Vice Chairman of Hau Giang Provincial People's Committee Nguyen Van Hoa requested the investor, Vi Thanh City, and the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to review the land use planning. If there is not yet one, it must be urgently added to the land use planning and plan to carry out the next steps.
Once the investment project is approved, compensation work can be implemented immediately. The investor and the consultant will make an implementation plan, and the project is expected to start in 2025.
