The expanded roads are expected to reduce congestion and better connect the city's centre with Nội Bài International Airport. |
The projects have been put into operation in time for the capital city’s 70th anniversary of the Liberation Day (October 10, 1954 - 2024)
Dương Đức Tuấn, Vice Chairman of Hà Nội People's Committee, said both projects are located at the main routes connecting the city centre with the northwestern area and Nội Bài International Airport.
The two projects will help improve the city's traffic capacity, enhance traffic connectivity and strengthen the flood prevention capacity of the Red River dyke, he said.
