The Ho Chi Minh City People’s Council has officially passed a resolution approving the investment policy for the construction of the Thu Thiem 4 Bridge.
This key infrastructure project will be developed through public investment with a total budget exceeding VND5.063 trillion (over $192 million), with the HCMC Transportation Works Construction Investment Project Management Board serving as the project developer.
The city plans to select contractors and break ground in the fourth quarter of 2026, aiming to complete and open the bridge to traffic by the fourth quarter of 2028.
The bridge will begin at Nguyen Van Linh Street, near the Tan Thuan 2 Bridge intersection in District 7, and terminate at Nguyen Co Thach Street within the Thu Thiem New Urban Area in Thu Duc City. Designed with a speed limit of 60 km/h, the bridge will feature eight lanes, including six motorized lanes and two mixed-traffic lanes. The total length of the route is approximately 2.16 km, of which the bridge structure itself spans 1.635 km.
HCM City has designated Thu Thiem 4 as a priority and urgent project to synchronize the regional technical infrastructure system in line with the master plan approved by the Prime Minister.
Once operational, the bridge is expected to redistribute traffic flow and reduce the burden on existing routes and bridges such as Nguyen Tat Thanh, Khanh Hoi, Kenh Te, Ong Lanh, and Nguyen Van Cu.
