The Hanoi People's Committee has officially approved the investment projects for the Tu Lien Bridge and the Ring Road 3 section through Dong Anh District.

Under the People's Committee's Decision No. 1850/QD-UBND, the Tu Lien Bridge project will span three districts—Tay Ho, Long Bien, and Dong Anh—covering a land area of approximately 62.71 ha.

The Hanoi Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board has been designated as the investor, with the total investment capital surpassing VND15 trillion (over $581.5 million).

Scheduled for implementation between 2025 and 2027, the project aims to enhance transportation infrastructure by connecting the two banks of the Red River, promoting urbanization, alleviating population congestion in central areas, and easing the burden on existing bridges such as Chuong Duong, Long Bien, Nhat Tan, Thang Long, and Vinh Tuy.

Separately, the People's Committee's Decision No. 1880/QD-UBND outlines the Ring Road 3 section project through Dong Anh District, with a total investment capital of VND5.413 trillion ($210 million).

The Dong Anh District People's Committee will oversee the project, which is expected to be executed from 2025 to 2028.

The Ring Road 3 section is designed with a cross-section ranging from 61 to 68 meters, featuring six lanes for motorized vehicles on the main route, complemented by two parallel service roads.
