Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh examined the construction of the Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot expressway in the central region on August 17, the Government News has reported.

The expressway links coastal south-central Khanh Hoa province and Buon Ma Thuot city in the Central Highlands’ Dak Lak province.

The 117.5-km link is designed to have four lanes, with total investment estimated at nearly VND22 trillion ($872 million).

He asked local authorities to strive to complete site clearance soon to ensure the progress of the project and take care of the residents who have moved to new areas to pave the way for the project.
