Phu Luong Bridge, Cable-stayed bridge in Hải Dương Province, Vietnam
The Phu Luong Bridge is a cable-stayed structure crossing the Thai Binh River with two vehicle lanes and separate pedestrian paths on both sides. The structure connects several districts across Hải Dương Province.
The bridge was built in the early 2000s as part of Vietnam's major infrastructure program for regional development. The project opened previously isolated rural areas to better market access and economic cooperation.
The bridge brought together communities that were previously separated, enabling regular interaction between people from different riverbanks. This connection continues to shape relationships and economic ties between the towns today.
The bridge is accessible during daylight hours for regular traffic and allows pedestrians safe passage across the river. Visitors can use the walkways to explore the surroundings and observe the river landscape.
The design accounts for the Thai Binh's significant water level fluctuations through special anchoring and flexible structural elements. This adaptation allows the bridge to handle seasonal water variations of up to three meters without suffering structural damage.
