A feasibility study
and evaluation for the construction project of road and bridge linking the
provinces of Kampong Chhnang and Kampong Thom separated by Tonle Sap Lake are
nearly completed soon.
Ministry of Public
Works and Transport said that the bridge with a length of some 3,600 meters
across Tonle Sap Lake and National Road No. 50C with a length of 60 kilometers
will be built in connecting National Road No.5 in Kampong Chhnang province with
National Road No.6 in Kampong Thom province.
When the study
completed, the project will be carried out by Chinese company, he added.
Ministry hoped that
the road is important for linking the Southern and Northern provinces of Tonle
Sap Lake, it means that it will link National Roads No. 5 and 6 and the people
will have no need to go to Phnom Penh for transit any more. The project could
also enhance the national economic growth in the country, thus contributing to
the poverty alleviation objective stated in the fifth mandate Cambodian
government’s rectangular strategy and it will also be very useful because it
will connect all areas in the country, saving time and money on cost of the
travel and transportation of goods.
