Meanwhile a South Korean contractor will carry out a series of road projects in Can Tho Province in southern Vietnam. A new road link is being planned to connect Nam Song Hau Road with National Highway 91. This project is expected to cost US$663.4 million, although the financing model for the work has yet to be confirmed. Planned construction work in Can Tho Province includes the building of 25 bridges and nine intersections.
