The project starts in Thanh Tri district (Hanoi), connecting to the end point of the Ring Road 3.5 project from Phuc La - Van Phu to Phap Van - Cau Gie expressway, about 360m from this expressway towards Huu Hong dike.

The end point of the bridge is located in Van Giang district (Hung Yen), connecting with Ring Road 3.5 in Van Giang district, 700m from Ta Hong dike towards Hanoi - Hai Phong highway.

According to the Hanoi People's Committee, the construction of Ngoc Hoi Bridge will help increase the connection between Hanoi Capital and Hung Yen Province, creating favorable conditions and connecting new urban areas such as: Ecopark New Urban Area, Dai An Urban Area, Dream City Urban Area... Thereby, creating conditions for socio-economic development in the southern area of the city as well as the southern and southeastern provinces of the Capital Region such as: Hung Yen, Ha Nam, Bac Ninh.

In addition to the 8 bridges across the Red River (Thang Long, Chuong Duong, Vinh Tuy, Thanh Tri, Nhat Tan, Vinh Thinh, Long Bien, Viet Tri - Ba Vi), according to the planning until 2030, with a vision to 2050, Hanoi will have 10 more bridges across the river. These are Tu Lien, Tran Hung Dao, Van Phuc, Hong Ha, Me So (ring road 4), Thang Long Moi (ring road 3), Vinh Tuy (phase 2), Thuong Cat, Ngoc Hoi (ring road 3.5) and Phu Xuyen bridges.
