This bridge is multi-million dollar replacement for the ferry serving B K district, designated as a new strategic link to connect the HCM City centre with Can Gio area.

At approximately 3.4 km long, the bridge spans over the Soai Rap river with four traffic lanes and has a posted speed of 60 kph.

Our provision of sub-consultancy and peer review services included:

a) Traffic volumes assumption: a crucial performance indicator to better cater for traffic surges at critical peak times.

b) Another indicator was a measure of the V/C (volume to capacity) ratio across the study area to detect feasible options.

Cost-Benefit analysis and B/C ratios was calculated for the individual concepts. Options investigated based on the results of the feasibility studies as well as guidelines and assumptions drawn from several relevant studies.

A number of sensitivity tests were undertaken and compared against the Do-Something results in the forecast year scenario.

This study assesses the link’s performance in the forecast year. Overall, the study focused on two options;

a) Do-Nothing, leave the current road system as is or;

b) Do-Something Scenario, take action to improve the transport infrastructure with the inclusion of the proposed link road.
