NGUYEN VAN TROI – TRAN THI LY BRIDGE , DA NANG CITY

23/12/2008

 

1. Project Description
Nguyen Van Troi – Tran Thi Ly Bridge is located in Da Nang City which is 764 km far from the North (Hanoi City) and 964 km far from the South (Ho Chi Minh City) . This port city plays an important role in the East coast region. It is also a key traffic intersection of highway, railway, sea-way and airline, linking the North and the South of Vietnam. This cable-stayed bridge, crossing Han River, connecting Hai Chau, Son Tra and Ngu Hanh Son districts, will replace the two existing Nguyen Van Troi and Tran Thi Ly bridges.

The structure of Nguyen Van Troi – Tran Thi Ly Cable-Stayed Bridge is a special one which is first time applied in Vietnam. It has triple-plane cables combining with flexible-junction tower. This project requires high technical specifications and applies new technological materials.
The Client: DA NANG PEOPLE’S COMMITTEE
