The Bãi Cháy Bridge (Vietnamese: Cầu Bãi Cháy) is a cable-stayed bridge on Highway 18, connecting Hồng Gai with Bãi Cháy over the Cửa Lục Straits, separating Cửa Lục Bay with Hạ Long Bay, the territory of Quảng Ninh Province, Vietnam. The work was completed and opened to traffic on December 2, 2006. Bãi Cháy Bridge has been put to use to address the needs of the people of Quảng Ninh, tourists inside and outside Vietnam, and also to end decades of operation of the Bãi Cháy ferry.
