HCMC – Dong Nai Province in southern Vietnam will invest VND123 trillion in four infrastructure projects, including two bridges, a metro line extension, and a regional connector road, reported the Vietnam News Agency.
The projects are the Long Hung Bridge, the Cat Lai Bridge, an extension of HCMC’s Metro Line No. 1 to Bien Hoa and Long Thanh International Airport, and a road linking Dong Xoai Ward to Beltway No. 4 in HCMC.
