The entire Can Tho – Ca Mau section of the Eastern North–South Expressway officially opened to traffic on January 19.

The expressway session has a total length of more than 110 km, features four lanes, and represents a total investment of over VND27.5 trillion ($1.11 billion). It connects Can Tho City with An Giang and Ca Mau provinces in the Mekong Delta, with a maximum speed limit of 80 km per hour.

The project is a key transport infrastructure development, serving as a strategic connectivity axis for the Mekong Delta region and forming a high-speed transport corridor linking the regional center with the country’s southernmost point.

The full opening of the Can Tho – Ca Mau expressway is expected to unlock new development opportunities across the Mekong Delta by shortening travel time, reducing logistics costs, and enhancing the competitiveness of the region’s agriculture, aquaculture, and processing industries.
