The Cambodia-Korea Friendship Bridge crossing the Mekong river from the night market to Chroy Changva and Arey Ksat, is set to begin construction in 2023, according to HE Khuon Sodary, Second Vice President of the National Assembly.
HE Sodary said during the meeting with a delegation from Kyungyu, Republic of Korea, on 19 October that construction of the new Cambodia-Korea Friendship Bridge will begin next year under a grant and a concessional loan from the Government of the Republic of Korea.
This project will include two bridges. One will connect the night market to Chroy Changva and the other from Chroy Changva to Arey Ksat. The two bridges will be built as a high cable-stayed bridge without pillars.
The South Korean government decided to provide funding for the construction of this project in 2020.
