During the first phase, the expressway would have four normal lanes and two emergency lanes. Following land clearance, it would be expanded to six normal lanes. The projects costs over VND19.6 trillion ($787.94 million).
There will be five major intersections along the expressway, connecting with Ring Road 3, provincial road 15, provincial road 8, DT.787B, national highway 22B and national highway 22.
The intersection connecting with Ring Road 3 and provincial road 15 in HCMC's Cu Chi District is the largest, including overpasses and tunnels that allow vehicles to take different paths.
There will be a railway running through the Moc Bai-Ring Road 3 and provincial road 15 intersections.
