Yen Bai: Construction begins on Gioi Phien bridge

Friday, December 24, 2021

YBO - The People's Committee of Yen Bai province on December 22 started construction on Gioi Phien bridge in Yen Bai city. This is the 8th bridge across the Red River in the province and the 5th bridge to be built in Yen Bai city.

Groundbreaking ceremony of Gioi Phien bridge.

The steel-vault Gioi Phien bridge is designed to have a width of 20.5m and a length of nearly 520m, with a total investment of 650 billion VND. With three vaults, this will be a bridge with beautiful architecture, creating a highlight for the urban space of the city.

Once operational, the bridge is expected to contribute to synchronising local infrastructure, especially the traffic system, ensuring the connection between the two banks of the Red River, connecting Noi Bai - Lao Cai Expressway, National Highway 32C, Highway 70 with Au Co street, and linking to the centre of Yen Bai city.

Provincial leaders discuss with investor and contractor at the groundbreaking ceremony.

The spanning of Gioi Phien bridge is an important milestone in the city’s integration and investment attraction, creating a momentum for the successful implementation of the goal of making Yen Bai province develop rapidly and sustainably towards a direction of green, harmony, identity and happiness, and become a moderate prosperous province by 2025 and in the group of leading developed provinces of the northern midland and mountainous region by 2030.

The project is expected to be completed in September 2023.
