The inauguration of the two projects plays an important role in completing the Ho Chi Minh City – Can Tho Expressway route which would shorten the travel time from Ho Chi Minh City to Can Tho City to around two hours.
The Ministry of Transport informed that vehicles will be able to travel on My Thuan - Can Tho Expressway and through the My Thuan 2 bridge, beginning at 7 a.m. on December 25.
In order to maximize the investment efficiency and exploitation capacity of the two projects, the ministry has directed investors and specialized agencies to proactively review and evaluate right during the implementation process of the above projects and decided to allow a maximum speed of 90 kilometers per hour for vehicles.
In addition, in order to ensure synchronous exploitation of the whole Ho Chi Minh City - Can Tho Expressway route, the People's Committee of Tien Giang Province also approved raising the maximum speed on the Trung Luong- My Thuan Expressway route to 90 kilometers per hour.
