The capital of Vietnam, Hanoi, will, by the end of 2014, have a new road connection between the city centre and the Noi Bai International Airport. The pathway of this new eight-lane road, four for each direction, crosses the Red River. To save its 1,200 m of width, Vietnam's Ministry of Transportation launched a project of a spectacular cable-stayed bridge and approach viaduct of 3.080 m in total length.

The main part of the bridge, 1,500 m in length, will feature five A-shaped concrete pylons, to which the clamping cables will be tied. The construction of these pylons, located every 300 m along the bridge, has been done by five 21LC550 18t tower cranes, supplied to Sumitomo Mitsui Construction by Asia-Ted, a dealer of Linden Comansa in Singapore. The initial assembly of the five cranes was carried out by a team of Linden Comansa's technicians.
