This line would facilitate the transport of agricultural products and other goods, contributing to the socio-economic development of the Central Highlands region.
Designed for speeds of 100 - 120 km/h, the expressway will significantly reduce travel time from Gia Nghia town (Dak Nong) to Ho Chi Minh City from 4-5 hours to approximately 2 hours.
The Binh Phuoc Provincial People’s Committee will be the authorized agency in the construction of the Gia Nghia - Chon Thanh Expressway under the public-private partnership (PPP) mode and with a build-operate-transfer (BOT) contract. The 140-km project is a component of the Ho Chi Minh Highway and connects southern Binh Phuoc province with the central highlands’ Dak Nong province and has total investment of VND23 trillion ($982 million).
