A new expressway link is being planned in Vietnam. The new route will connect Huu Nghi and Chi Lang. The project is expected to cost nearly US$326 million.

The plans call for the work to be carried out under the build-operate-transfer model. Financing will be sourced jointly from the state budget, from the budget for the province, from investors and from a package of loans.

The project is expected to take close to 20 years to repay the initial investment.
