The project consists of two phases. The first phase from HCMC to Trang Bang with the length of 33 kilometer will be a complete four-lane highway with the width of 27 meters and the speed of 120 kilometer per hour, while the second phase will build a four-lane expressway with the width of 17 meter and the speed of 80 kilometer per hour.
To facilitate the project construction, site clearance will be carried out in the first phase in the area of 342 hectare.
