Bien Hoa expressway to cost $840 million

The Ministry of Transport has asked for the Prime Minister’s permission to approve the Bien Hoa – Vung Tau expressway project.

The 77.56-km expressway, which will link Bien Hoa City in the southern province of Dong Nai with neighbouring Ba Ria-Vung Tau Province’s Vung Tau City, will cost a total of VND16 trillion (US$840 million).

Under the ministry’s proposal, the expressway will have six lanes, and allow a maximum speed of 100-120km per hour. Construction of the project is expected to begin in August 2012. — VNS
