The project will also provide a foundation for the development of the area's internal transport network and improve overall urban connectivity. - To strengthen connectivity among the city's ring roads, thereby shortening transport routes to the city’s industrial parks and seaports; - To develop Ring Road No.3 in line with the directions and strategic orientation of the Politburo as set out in Conclusion No.96-KL/TW dated 30 September 2024 on the continued implementation of Resolution No.45-NQ/TW dated 24 January 2019 regarding the construction and development of Hai Phong City through 2030, with a vision to 2045, particularly the objective of “prioritizing resources for investment in inter-regional transport infrastructure projects and strengthening connectivity within the Hanoi - Hai Phong - Quang Ninh development triangle”. 2. Investment Scale - The total route length is approximately 17.55 km. The starting point is at Km0 (approximately Km7+150 on Provincial Road No. 355), within the Hung Dao Interchange connecting with Ring Road No. 2, in Hung Dao Ward, Hai Phong City. The endpoint is at Km17+550 (approximately Km32+400 on National Highway No. 10), in An Lao Commune, Hai Phong City. - Cross-sectional Configuration: The Project will be studied and developed in accordance with the planned scale, with a total roadbed width of Broadbed = 68 m. Land clearance is proposed to cover the full planned roadbed width of Broadbed = 68 m. To ensure compatibility with the respective construction phases, traffic volumes during different stages of operation and the pace of urban development in the surrounding area, the proposed configuration for Phase 1 is as follows: + Section from Hung Dao Interchange to Provincial Road No. 354: Construction of a road with a roadbed width of Broadbed = 68 m, an eight-lane carriageway with a width of Bcarriageway = 2 × 15 m = 30 m, a central median with a width of Bmedian = 23 m, and sidewalks with a combined width of Bsidewalk = 2 × 7.5 m = 15 m; + Section from Provincial Road No. 354 to National Highway No. 10: Construction of a road with a roadbed width of Broadbed = 37 m, an eight-lane carriageway with a width of Bcarriageway = 2 × 15 m = 30 m, a central median with a width of Bmedian = 5 m, and earth shoulders with a width of Bshoulders = 2 × 1 m = 2 m. Land reserves for future widening will be provided on both sides of the road, with a combined width of Bwidening = 2 × 15.5 m = 31 m. - Connections to major intersections: Interchanges will be arranged at the main transverse roads connecting the regions and areas crossed by the route, including: Hung Dao Interchange (Km0+000); Provincial Road No. 361 Interchange (Km2+511); Interchange with the connecting road between National Highway No. 5 and National Highway No. 10 (Km6+327); Provincial Road No. 354 Interchange (Km7+873); Provincial Road No. 360 Interchange (Km14+794) and National Highway No. 10 Interchange (Km 17 + 557). - Connections to existing Roads: Connection to existing roads will be reinstated to ensure convenient access and harmonious integration with the road corridor’s landscape. During the preparation of the Project proposal, appropriate connection locations will be identified based on the development needs of each area.
