The first-phase opening section of Bien Hoa – Vung Tau Expressway spans nearly 38 kilometers and is designed with 4 to 6 lanes. During the initial temporary operation of component projects 2 and 3 of the expressway, the maximum permitted speed for vehicles is 80 km/h, while the minimum speed is 60 km/h. Only passenger vehicles with up to 9 seats are allowed to use this section.
The commissioning of these two component projects holds significant importance as it helps relieve pressure on National Highway 51, which has been heavily overloaded for many years. Once the entire project is completed, it will be synchronously connected to the Eastern North-South Expressway, Long Thanh International Airport, and the Cai Mep-Thi Vai seaport economic hub, thereby meeting the demand for a modern and integrated transport infrastructure system.
