The companies are the Le Hung Tourism Service Co., Ltd., the Phuc Nhat Tan Co., Ltd., and the Sao Bien Xanh Entertainment Services JSC.

Accordingly, each company is allowed to build a new tourist boat with a capacity of 36-40 passengers to operate on the aforementioned route.

The municipal Department of Transport is responsible for guiding the above-mentioned businesses to build new passenger boats in accordance with the National Technical Regulations on classification and construction of inland waterway vehicles and related procedures in a bid to put their boats into operation in 2022.

The Management Board of the Son Tra Peninsula and Da Nang Tourism Beaches, the owner of the CT15 Inland Wharf, will closely work with the city’s Border Guard High Command to arrange anchorages for the boats and parking areas for road vehicles in order to ensure the traffic safety and the efficient management and operation of the wharf.
