The bridge is 459.5m long, with a 250m balanced cantilever main span. This is a very important project. Once completed and put into use, it will bring about high economic efficiency, promote the connectivity of routes, ensure the circulation of goods and people's travel, promote socio-economic development, and improve the living standards of people in the area.

The Van Ly bridge and access road project was approved for investment and construction by the Provincial People's Committee in December 2022, with the Quang Nam Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board as the investor.
