Unlike many of the bridges I have seen in China, this one has some traffic.

Vietnam - Japan Friendship Bridge
"The Nhật Tân Bridge is the largest bridge in Southeast Asia, with a total extension (including installation bridge section) of 3,755 m. Considering the interannual variability of the Red River riverbed, which the main bridge spans, a double I-girder cable-stayed bridge with six continous  spans was selected, with a bridge length of 1,500 m (center span length 300 m)."
It connects Hanoi's city center with Noi Bai International Airport.
