    The 1,761-meter-long bridge, alongside a 31.69-kilometer connecting road, was built by Shanghai Construction Group and funded through a $100 million low-interest loan from China.

    Since its groundbreaking on Jan. 2, 2023, presided over by then Cambodian Prime Minister and current President of the Senate Hun Sen, the project has progressed smoothly.
