Nguyen Hoang Bridge will be a symbol of Hue’s new development when Hue is directly under the Central Government.
Nguyen Hoang Bridge is part of the overpass project spanning the Huong River and Nguyen Hoang Street, with a total investment of over VND2,280 billion, or nearly US$100 million.
The design of the bridge over the Huong River originates from the image of a crane flying to Thien Mu Pagoda with many details stemming from the Nguyen Dynasty’s architectural style.
After its completion, the bridge will help complete the traffic network, ease traffic congestion and reduce the traffic load on National Highway 1A and the roads passing through Hue City. Moreover, it will contribute to the establishment of satellite towns and new urban areas in the west of Hue City, which facilitates the socio-economic development, tourism and service industries, as well as improve the people’s living standards.
Currently, the central province of Thua Thien-Hue has seven bridges spanning the Huong River, namely Truong Tien, Phu Xuan, Da Vien, Bach Ho, Tuan, Cho Dinh and Thao Long.
