Vehicles participating in traffic on the section passing through Khe Da bridge are limited to a load of no more than 3.5 tons.

However, due to the slow progress of the project, during storm No. 3 on July 22, Tien Dong Commune had to mobilize forces to be on duty here to ensure the safety of vehicles and passersby. The representative of Tien Dong Commune People's Committee also informed that, from the voters' petition, at the recent 31st session of the Provincial People's Council, the delay in the progress of Tien Dong bridge project was reported and recommended by the commune's leaders so that the competent authorities could pay attention and direct the construction unit to urgently complete it to meet the investment target.
