The North-South Expressway, which is under construction, with many sections already opening to traffic,  will be equipped with a smart traffic system when put into operation in 2025 to ensure efficient management and operation of vehicles, according to the Ministry of Transport.

An intelligent traffic system (ITS) and a toll collection system will be installed for the expressway.

The ITS is a system which applies technical and technological solutions to efficiently organize and manage operation of vehicles on roads. 

It will monitor the traffic system, provide traffic information, help manage traffic order and safety violations, as well as control public transport, incidents, infrastructure, parking, and payment for electronic public transport tickets.

The ITS has been installed for seven expressways across the country, including the Hanoi-Hai Phong, Ha Long-Van Don, HCM City-Long Thanh-Dau Giay, HCM City-Trung Luong, Trung Luong-My Thuan, Phap Van-Cau Gie and Cau Gie-Ninh Binh.

The master plan on applying information technology in transport management and operation, approved by the Prime Minister, targets to have 100% of expressways managed and operated by the ITS.
