Accordingly, after reviewing the proposal of Construction Corporation No. 1 JSC (CC1), representing the consortium of CC1, CC1 Investment JSC, and Southern Infrastructure and Energy JSC, as well as the recommendation of the Department of Finance, the Chairman of the Provincial People’s Committee approved the consortium of CC1 – CC1 Investment JSC – Southern Infrastructure and Energy JSC as the investor responsible for preparing the project proposal for the Long Hung Bridge PPP project. The deadline for submitting the project proposal is before December 7, 2025. The Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board is designated as the unit receiving investor submissions.

Under this decision, the investor is responsible for allocating funds to prepare the project investment proposal and bears all risks if the proposal is not approved. If the proposing investor is not selected to implement the project, the investor chosen must reimburse all eligible costs incurred by the proposing investor.

The Provincial People’s Committee assigned the Department of Finance, Department of Construction, Department of Agriculture and Environment, and the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board to coordinate with relevant agencies in appraising and completing procedures related to construction, planning, environment, and land in accordance with the law.

The investor consortium is responsible for the content of the project proposal. The consortium is also expected to coordinate with the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board to receive and review ongoing documents while working proactively with departments, agencies, and localities to finalise the investment proposal.

The Long Hung Bridge project and its connecting roads, which link Dong Nai Province with Ho Chi Minh City, have a total length of nearly 12 kilometres, with Long Hung Bridge spanning more than 2.3 kilometres. The project begins at the intersection with Ring Road 3 - Ho Chi Minh City at Go Cong Interchange (Ho Chi Minh City) and ends at National Highway 51 in An Phuoc commune, Dong Nai province.

For this project, the Dong Nai People’s Committee and the Ho Chi Minh City People’s Committee agreed to divide the work into two independent projects. Dong Nai will act as the competent state authority for the Long Hung Bridge construction project, which includes the main bridge and the approach roads on the Dong Nai side (including site clearance within Dong Nai) under the PPP model. Ho Chi Minh City will implement the connecting road from Go Cong Interchange to Long Hung Bridge (including site clearance within Ho Chi Minh City) using public investment funded by the city budget.
