According to the Ministry of Construction , in Resolution No. 57/2022 of the National Assembly on the investment policy of the Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3 construction project, the Ministry of Transport (now the Ministry of Construction) is responsible for presiding over and coordinating with the Ministry of Finance, relevant ministries, branches and localities to develop a plan to recover project investment capital to repay the budget.

The Ministry of Construction has submitted to the Government Decree No. 130/2024/ND-CP, regulating the collection of highway usage fees for vehicles traveling on public highways directly managed and operated by the State.
