CaliToday (30/7/2025): Vietnam's key national project - the North-South Expressway East Section Phase 2021-2025 is showing remarkable progress. With the decisive direction of the Vietnamese Government and the relentless efforts of contractors and workers on the construction sites across Vietnam, many sections are being accelerated and are expected to be completed and technically opened in 2025, creating significant opportunities for transport connectivity and promoting socio-economic development of Vietnam.
Overcoming Difficulties, Accelerating Progress in Vietnam
Throughout the construction sites of the North-South Expressway Phase 2021-2025 in Vietnam, the atmosphere of construction is always bustling and urgent. Thousands of engineers, workers, and hundreds of modern machines and equipment are working "3 shifts, 4 crews" day and night to ensure the set schedule. Overcoming many challenges related to site clearance, material supply, and harsh weather conditions in Vietnam, contractors have implemented many creative and flexible solutions to bring the project to completion on time.
A representative of Vietnam's Ministry of Transport stated that the component projects are being closely monitored for quality and progress. Many sections in Vietnam have completed the roadbed and are moving to the stage of asphalt paving and installation of traffic safety systems.
Multiple Sections in Vietnam Ready for Opening
According to information from project management boards in Vietnam, several key sections of the North-South Expressway Phase 2021-2025 have been basically completed and are expected to be put into technical operation in the last months of 2025. The early commissioning of these sections in Vietnam will immediately be effective, significantly shortening travel time, reducing pressure on National Highway 1A, and enhancing traffic safety.
When these sections are connected to the sections already in operation in Vietnam, they will form a continuous and modern transportation backbone, gradually completing the national highway expressway network.
A Leverage for Socio-Economic Development in Vietnam
The completion and commissioning of the North-South Expressway sections in Vietnam has significance beyond just transportation. It is considered the "backbone" of the Vietnamese economy, creating a new economic corridor, promoting regional linkages, and facilitating investment attraction and the development of industrial parks, tourism, and services along the route in Vietnam.
When transport infrastructure is synchronously connected in Vietnam, logistics costs will decrease, and the competitiveness of Vietnamese goods will be enhanced. At the same time, the project also opens up new development space for localities in Vietnam, contributing to the transformation of the economic structure, creating more jobs, and improving the lives of the Vietnamese people.
With the current progress in Vietnam, the early commissioning of new sections of the North-South Expressway East Section this year is entirely feasible. This is not only good news for the people and businesses of Vietnam but also clear evidence of Vietnam's determination and capacity in building key transport infrastructure projects, realizing the goal of becoming a country with a modern and synchronous transportation network.
