The central city of Da Nang will start construction of a USD196.65 million tunnel beneath the Han River in the third quarter of this year.


Danang will build the first tunnel beneath the Han River

People's Committee Chairman Huynh Duc Tho speaking at a meeting on June 15 agreed the proposal after technical discussions.

The six-lane 1,315-metre tunnel will run from Dong Da Street in Hai Chau District to Van Don Street in Son Tra District and take three years to build.

Regarding the funding for the project, Tho said that it would partly come from the sell-off of land along local beaches.
