The Nhat Tan Bridge, Terminal T2 of the Noi Bai International Airport and the road connecting the bridge and Noi Bai International Airport, all partly funded by Japanese ODA, are expected to go into operation on January 6 next year.

The three projects have a combined investment of VND34.7 trillion ($1.63 billion). The four-storey Noi Bai terminal was capitalised at VND18 trillion ($845 million) and is capable of serving 10 million passengers per year.

Nhat Tan, Vietnam’s biggest cable suspension bridge, has received investment totalling VND13.6 trillion ($640 million).

The 12-kilometre road connecting Nha Tan Bridge to Noi Bai International Airport has four lanes and a maximum speed of 100kmph and cost VND6.7 trillion ($314 million).

These projects, once finished, will connect Vietnam’s political centre, namely Ba Dinh district, with Noi Bai International Airport and will greatly contribute to the country’s economic and social development.
