The total investment for the Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway Project is approximately VND 45,000 billion. The investment capital sources include: capital from the Vietnam Infrastructure Development and Financial Investment Corporation (contributed by shareholders); loans from the Vietnam Development Bank; and government support.
The route is designed according to international Class A highway standards, with a design speed of 120 km/h, and includes 9 grade-separated interchanges at intersections with national and provincial roads; it also features 17 large bridges, 24 medium bridges, and 22 overpasses and interchange bridges (total bridge length approximately 14 km).
The average cross-sectional width is 100m, including 6 traffic lanes, each 3.75m wide, 2 emergency stopping lanes, a central median, green belts on both sides of the road, and service roads along both sides of the route.
The construction of the Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway was carried out based on the strictest standards, shaping it into one of the most modern expressways in Vietnam at the time of its operation.
With a durable structure, VIDIFI applies a 10cm thick polymer asphalt concrete pavement structure on a crushed stone base layer, ensuring high load-bearing capacity and resistance to rutting – a problem faced by many other roads, but which VIDIFI has completely solved.
Intelligent transportation systems and a closed-loop automated toll collection system; traffic safety facilities are designed and installed to be complete and modern.
The Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway is the first road in Vietnam to implement a fully automated toll collection system.
Along the route, service stations and rest stops are spaced approximately 30km apart, providing services such as fuel, repairs, electric vehicle charging, restrooms, rest areas, and restaurants. In 2019, the V52 service station on the Hanoi Expressway was awarded the "Leading Tourist Rest Stop in Vietnam" at the "Vietnam Tourism Awards 2019".
The Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway is part of the Vietnam-China economic "two corridors, one belt" initiative. This modern, vital transportation route connecting the capital city of Hanoi with the port city of Hai Phong, the tourist city of Ha Long, and the Van Don economic zone is truly a driving force for socio-economic development in the key economic region of Northern Vietnam.
The Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway plays a crucial role in supporting and attracting investment, promoting import and export activities, and shortening travel time between Hanoi and Hai Phong. The Hanoi-Hai Phong Expressway also contributes to the completion of transportation infrastructure, creating a foundation for the exploitation and development of thousands of hectares of land for the construction of urban areas, industrial zones, and economic, educational, medical, and cultural infrastructure. This contributes to the strategy of building a civilized and modern capital city, while also creating a significant impetus for the socio-economic development of the Northern key economic region.
