Deputy PM seeks study of proposed Bac Ninh - Pha Lai Expressway

Deputy Prime Minister Le Van Thanh has asked the Ministry of Transport and relevant ministries and localities to study a project proposed by Bac Ninh province to build a 10.3-km stretch of the projected Bac Ninh - Pha Lai Expressway. The stretch, which has total investment of VND4 trillion ($171.67 million), when completed, will link Hanoi’s projected Ring Road No. 4 with National Highway No. 18. This is also a key route linking major industrial chains in northern Bac Ninh province together and with industrial chains in neighboring Bac Giang province.
