Mỹ Thuận Bridge

The Mỹ Thuận Bridge stretches 1,535 meters across the Mekong River, connecting Tiền Giang Province with Vĩnh Long Province through four traffic lanes.

The bridge construction, completed in 2000, marked the largest international aid project from Australia to Vietnam, with a total investment of 91 million Australian dollars.

The bridge represents the first cable-stayed structure across the Mekong River in Vietnam, transforming transportation networks in the southern region.

The bridge features 128 stay cables arranged in eight groups, supporting a 23.66-meter-wide deck that accommodates both motorized vehicles and pedestrian traffic.

The structure maintains a clearance of 37.5 meters above water level, allowing large vessels to pass underneath while connecting major transportation routes.
