After one year since the groundbreaking, Thanh Duc bridge across Sa Huynh estuary (Quang Ngai) has gradually become visible, the contractor is speeding up to complete it in early 2025.
Nearly 80% completed after one year of construction
In recent days, at the Thanh Duc bridge construction site (Pho Thanh ward, Duc Pho town, Quang Ngai), the construction work has been organized by the investor, consultant and contractor closely following the construction site to direct each construction phase to speed up the progress.
Thanh Duc Bridge completed nearly 80% of construction value after more than a year of construction.
According to the reporter, the construction teams were divided into tasks and organized to perform all stages in a continuous manner. On the East bank, the contractor arranged about 10 workers and many mechanical equipment to speed up the construction of the bridge abutments, access roads and related items.
In the main area, the contractor has completed the installation of girders, completed the construction of the lower part and is focusing on completing the concrete of the bridge deck of the remaining spans, as well as focusing on the construction of the concrete railing edge. Most of the main items of the project have been basically constructed to meet the requirements. The contractor is entering the finishing stage.
Although it is the rainy season, the construction work at the points is still being carried out synchronously. In parallel with the process of accelerating the construction of the bridge deck, the work of clearing the service road is also being carried out to ensure that when the project is completed, the temporarily borrowed construction site is also returned.
Although the overall progress of the project basically meets the schedule, at the West Bank location, the subcontractor's progress is slower than planned, so the investor has cut and transferred the volume from subcontractor Tien Hung to Bach Bang to take charge in order to speed up the overall progress.
Thanh Duc Bridge across Sa Huynh estuary, Duc Pho town, is one of the major traffic projects being implemented in the area.
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nguyen, Director of the Duc Pho Town Land Fund Development and Investment Project Management Board, said that after one year of construction, the project has completed the lower part of the project, installed all the beams and started to construct the concrete for most of the bridge deck.
Up to now, the project construction progress has reached approximately 80% of the contract value, and the disbursement value is nearly 90% of the assigned capital plan.

People are looking forward to the opening day
It is known that the new Thanh Duc bridge project consists of two main items: the bridge and the approach roads at both ends of the bridge. Of which, the bridge is more than 557m long, 13m wide with 4 lanes and 1.5m wide sidewalks on each side.
Thanh Duc Bridge is designed with a prestressed reinforced concrete beam structure consisting of 17 spans, Super T beam span structure, reinforced concrete railing support, galvanized steel pipe handrail. In addition to the main items, Thanh Duc Bridge also has a lighting system.
For the approach road to the bridge, nearly 110m long, 13m cross-section, of which the road surface is 10m wide, the sidewalk on each side is 1.5m paved with granite... with a total investment of 265 billion VND, invested by the Duc Pho Town Land Fund Development and Investment Project Management Board.
The new Thanh Duc Bridge is built about 250m north of the existing Thanh Duc Bridge, connecting at the same level with the Thanh Duc sea dike on the East bank and the Sa Huynh Urban Area - National Highway 1 project on the West bank.
Thanh Duc Bridge project not only solves the problem of traffic and trade between the two banks around Sa Huynh port but also gradually completes the infrastructure, promoting urban development in the southernmost province of Quang Ngai.
At the same time, the population of the core area of Pho Thanh ward will be spread to the North to reduce infrastructure pressure as this is the locality with the highest population density in Quang Ngai with more than 28,000 people, mainly living in the ward center.
Many local people said that the progress of bridge construction is different every day.
"In less than a year, the project has taken shape, and we, the people, are very happy. The time when the bridge is about to be completed is very close, and people can travel safely without worrying like when using the old bridge," said Mr. Thuan, who lives near the project.
Ms. Le Thi Nhung, who lives by the sea, expressed her joy as the new bridge is taking shape. Ms. Nhung said she is very excited to wait for the day it opens to traffic so that it can be used more conveniently instead of the old, seriously degraded bridge that is in danger of collapsing at any time.
Bridge railing construction work is being accelerated to ensure the overall progress of the project.
Project completion in March 2025
At the project site in the last days of the year, the construction atmosphere is very urgent. The contractor representative said that the unit is making efforts to speed up construction, coordinate with local authorities and investors to remove existing problems and obstacles to ensure the overall progress of the project, and put the project into operation as planned.
It is expected that by March 2025, Thanh Duc bridge will be completed and put into operation.
Director of the Duc Pho Town Land Fund Development and Investment Project Management Board, Mr. Nguyen Thanh Nguyen, said that the remaining time to complete the project and put the project into operation is not much, so he has directed the contractor to speed up construction, arrange adequate human resources, material resources, and finance to concentrate on the construction site to ensure construction progress and capital disbursement.
"The capital allocated for the project is more than 184 billion VND. We are making efforts to disburse 100% of the capital by December 31, ensuring the completion of the project in March 2025, putting it into operation and exploitation. In particular, the project was selected by Duc Pho Town Party Committee to have a signboard to welcome the Duc Pho Town Party Congress, term 2025-2030, so we are highly determined to complete the project as planned," said Mr. Nguyen.

Previously, Giao thong Newspaper reported that Thanh Duc bridge in Pho Thanh ward was seriously degraded, with many concrete pillars exposed, and the bridge railings broken, not ensuring traffic safety. After the report, Quang Ngai provincial leaders inspected the site and decided to allocate investment funds to build a new Thanh Duc bridge 250m away from the old bridge.
