Hello!!! This is Akkamaru!!!
This is just an experimental embedded topic I am doing...
The Fourth Thai-Lao Friendship Bridge (Thai: สะพานมิตรภาพ ไทย-ลาว แห่งที่ 4 [sàpʰaːn míttràpʰâːp tʰai laːw hɛ̀ŋ tʰîː sí] ||| Laos: ຂົວມິດຕະພາບ ລາວ-ໄທ [[kʰǔa mittapʰâːp láːw tʰai]) is a project to link the Chiang Rai Province of Thailand and Ban Houayxay in Laos. Currently, the parliament has already approved and accepted this project.
Size
[edit]The actual bridge will be about 630 meters long and about 14.70 meters wide. However, the construction area will be 400 meters wide.
Construction Area
[edit]In Thailand, the construction site is about 10 kilometers apart from Amphoe Chiang Khong (Chiang Khong District) in Thailand, and about 12 kilometers apart from Ban Houayxay of Laos.
Budgets and Duration
[edit]The Thais, Laotians, and Chinese have co-operated to spend about 1,900 million Baht as the budget for this construction project. The share will then be divided in half between the Thais and Chinese. It is estimated for the time used for constructing to be for at least 3 years and will be finished in year 2554 (2011).
