Xuân Nghi

Expressway expected to open to traffic later this month.

The Nha Trang - Cam Lam Expressway, part of the Eastern North-South Expressway, is ready to be opened to traffic in late May.

Some 98 per cent of the project’s work has been completed.

Leaders from the Ministry of Transport have visited the project and instructed the investor and contractors to quickly finish remaining tasks and open the link later this month.

Construction kicked off in September 2021 by the Son Hai Group under the public-private partnership form. It was scheduled for completion in September 2023.

However, construction is now been basically completed so the investor proposed the Ministry of Transport put the expressway into operation in late May.

The four-lane expressway is 49 km long, passing through Dien Khanh and Cam Lam districts and Cam Ranh city in south-central Khanh Hoa province. It has total investment of over VND4.3 trillion ($180 million).

Once in operation, it will help shorten travel times between economic zones and contribute to accelerating the establishment and development of industrial parks in Khanh Hoa.
