The new footbridge across Neang Kong Hing roundabout providing access to Olympia City is now 50 percent complete and is expected to be completed by April according to Phnom Penh City Municipality.

Construction has been progressing on schedule and at this stage, six pillars have been installed. The next task will be the upper work, connecting each section to each other. This new bridge will also be equipped with modern escalators.

Costing around USD3 million, the project is being implemented through cooperation between Phnom Penh City Municipality and Overseas Cambodia Investment Corporation (OCIC) and will ease traffic as well as boosting the safety of pedestrians in the area.

The bridge is also part of the Olympia City project, a mixed-use development built on 11 hectares north of the Olympic Stadium Phnom Penh comprising residential condominiums, commercial units, office buildings, serviced apartments, a hotel, Olympia Plaza and Olympia Tower.
