According to Chairman of Hanoi People's Committee Tran Sy Thanh, immediately following the direction of the Party and State leaders, Hanoi has focused on implementing synchronous tasks with many creative, flexible and appropriate solutions such as issuing a plan to implement the investment project with specific and detailed timelines; organizing weekly meetings; issuing a "green lane" priority mechanism to immediately process documents within 24 hours of receiving the documents; deciding to apply the form of contractor selection in special cases for consulting packages exceeding the designated bidding limit. Thanks to that, after only 5 months from the direction of the Party and State leaders, the project has completed the preparation work, meeting all the conditions according to regulations to start construction, while similar projects in the past took many years.

The Tu Lien Bridge and the road construction project at both ends of the bridge includes 4 component projects, with a total investment of about 19,830 billion VND; the total reclaimed area is about 62.53 hectares with about 701 cases of land reclaim. Tu Lien Bridge is 1 of 18 road bridges crossing the Red River under the Hanoi Capital Transport Development Plan to 2030 with a vision to 2050.
