On October 15, 2024, Vingroup Corporation sent a document to the Hanoi People's Committee to propose participating in the investment in the construction of Tu Lien Bridge project under the form of a Build-Transfer contract (BT contract), according to the provisions of the Capital Law.

Tu Lien Bridge Project is one of the key traffic projects of Hanoi City, included in the Transport Planning to 2030, vision to 2050 approved by the Prime Minister. The project connects the west bank of the Red River along Au Co - Nghi Tam route in Yen Phu and Tu Lien wards (Tay Ho District) with the east bank of the Red River in Dong Anh district, and directly connects the Hanoi - Thai Nguyen expressway and Ring Road 3. Currently, the west bank of the Red River is the main ring road connecting Nhat Tan Bridge with Long Bien and Chuong Duong bridges, so it is under great traffic pressure. When put into operation, Tu Lien Bridge will not only share the pressure with existing bridges but also increase the efficiency of traffic flow, while minimizing congestion on main roads. With experience in investing in the construction of transport infrastructure projects such as the project to build an elevated road along Ring Road 2, from Vinh Tuy Bridge to Nga Tu So, Vingroup is committed to completing Tu Lien Bridge on schedule and with quality, worthy of being one of the new symbolic works of the Capital. Previously, Vingroup reported to the Government on the progress of completing the investment plan to build the National Exhibition Center project in Dong Hoi and Xuan Canh communes, Dong Anh district in July 2025 to celebrate the 80th anniversary of National Day (September 2, 1945 - September 2, 2025). Together with the National Exhibition Center, Tu Lien Bridge coming into operation will contribute to meeting the large flow of domestic and international tourists attending fairs and exhibitions, promoting economic trade in the area north of the Red River as well as neighboring areas of the Capital.
