Vinci to construct Ca Pass tunnel and road project in Vietnam

France's Vinci Construction Grands Projets has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Vietnamese concession holder, Deo Ca Investment JSC for the turnkey construction of the Ca Pass tunnel and road project in Vietnam. The agreement provides for a first phase of exclusive discussions with a view to signing a design-build contract.

Located on the main north-south corridor between Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City (RN 1A), the project calls for widening 9 km of road and building a new 11 km section that includes two tunnels (5.5 km and 0.350 km), three bridges with a total length of 1.260 km and approach roads totalling 4 km. It will eliminate the final dangerous mountain pass crossing on the RN 1A. The value of the project is estimated at $600 million.
