Where Vietnamese standards are not available, foreign design standards shall be used. - Design frequency P = 1%. - Design speed in the tunnel and along the canal is 60km/h, design speed on the avenue on the Thu Thiem side is 80 km/h. - Design load: for convoy of standard H30-XB80 TCVN (equivalent to 125% (HS20-44) of standard AASHTO of the United States). - Clearances of the constructions on the surface of the road shall be 4.5m high. Clearance and navigability of the bridges shall conform to the standards of constructions on urban rivers and canals. - Structure of bridges: pre-stressed reinforced concrete beams, reinforced concrete pier foundations. - Traffic lane 3.5m large with separating strip between the two directions, at least 4m for the road and 0.8m for the tunnel. On land, there must be pathways for non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians at least 4m large separated from the motor traffic lane by a separating strip at least 2,5m large including the edges - Design standard for tunnel with maximum lengthwise inclination of 4% so as to ensure passage of motorbikes. - Road surface must be at least 60cm higher than the annual highest tide level. - Structure of road surface is asphalt concrete on cement reinforced macadam layers, macadam or other local materials. b/ Size of construction: - Tunnel: useful cross-section of tunnel enough for 6 vehicle lanes (2 x 3 x 3.5m) with separating strip of 0.8m and two escapes of 2m x 2m on either side, together with communications facilities, ventilation, lighting, drainage... to ensure safety for mechanized means including motorcycles moving at design speed. Structure of tunnel wall shall be in reinforced concrete, built by the method of underground tunnel in the middle of the river and dug-in tunnel or open tunnel at both ends connecting to the bank, depending on the height of the tunnel roof. - The road section along the canal (from Lo Gom canal to the opening of Thu Thiem tunnel in front of Calmette bridge): 6 motorized vehicle lanes (3 lanes each way), taking into account the entry control solutions in order to ensure traffic safety and carriage ability, including the building of separate passages for non-motorized vehicles and pedestrians on either side. Minimum road span [2 x (2 + 4 + 2.5 + 3 x 3.5) + 4] = 42m. - Road from National Highway 1A to Lo Gom canal: 6 lanes for motorized vehicles with land spared for expansion of the road in the future (entry gates to the city). Road span shall be 60m. - Road joining Thu Thiem tunnel to Hanoi motorway: 6 lanes for motorized vehicles with land spared for development of parallel road in the future. Road span shall be 100m. - New bridges to be built: Nuoc Len, Rach Cay, Lo Gom, Quoi Duoc, Ba Do, Rach Ngon En, Ca Tre Lon and Ca Tre Nho bridges. The bridge span must be large enough for 6 lanes of motorized vehicles with a separating strip in the middle 0.8m wide and a separate passage for non motorized vehicles and pedestrians [2 x (0.3 + 4 + 0.8 + 3 x 3.5) + 0.8] = 32m.
