TA-10181 REG: Preparing Sustainable Transport Projects in Southeast Asia - Project Preparation Support for Mekong Delta Connectivity Project – Tra Vinh (57219-001)

Objectives: The Mekong Delta Connectivity Project in Tra Vinh aims to bolster Viet Nam's transport infrastructure, aiding in the integration and coordination to support rapid economic growth within the region. Focusing on the construction of a 56.1 km two-lane road and a 4.6 km four-lane bridge, the project seeks to enhance connectivity across the Mekong Delta, specifically between Tra Vinh and neighboring provinces like Ben Tre. This infrastructure project not only targets road improvements but also aims to support economic zones such as the Dinh An economic zone. By improving access to critical ports, airports, and industrial zones, it seeks to facilitate economic development, align with regional growth strategies, and ensure readiness for ADB financing.
