Prensa Latina reported that the 1,25 km-long bridge with six tracks
and a four-way tunnel opened the traffic this week to the city of Ho Chi Minh.

In addition to relieving the traffic jam in the city, the height of this impressive piece of engineering allows the passing of cargo ships along the river.

Top political and state authorities participated in the inauguration of the bridge and recognized the contribution of Cuban engineers who oversaw the construction works.

The Thu Thiem is part of a 363-million dollar project for the opening of 10 new bridges.
