Ayeyawady Delta’s Satsan Chaung Bridge brings hope for development and will also serve as a cyclone shelter

June 22, 2017

The Satsan Chaung Bridge being built over the Satsan River that flows through Bogalay Township, Ayeyawady Region, is 70 per cent complete and expected to be finished this year. Construction of the bridge started a year after Cyclone Nargis hit the region in 2008. Upon completion, the bridge would shorten the distance between Bogalay and other areas in the delta area, which relies on the waterway for transportation and would also be used for a cyclone shelter.
