Chủ đề: North-South expressway

Twelve component projects of the Eastern North-South Expressway have been proposed for implementation in the 2021-2025 period entirely under the public investment form, with total capital of VND147 trillion ($6.5 billion) from the State. With a payback period of ten years, it is expected that VND37.88 trillion ($1.67 billion) will have been collected for the State budget.

The entire North-South Expressway is expected to be basically connected by 2025. Only eleven of the 12 component projects will be completed by 2024, due to difficulties and obstacles in implementation. The government has therefore called for social resources to invest in this key project.

The Ministry of Transport (MoT) is consulting with other ministries over its proposal to collect road tolls on eight North-South Expressway sections. The proposed toll would be VND1,000-1,500 per kilometer, which would raise VND2.13 trillion ($93.55 million) for the State budget annually.
