According to the official dispatch of the People's Committee of Bac Ninh province just sent to the Ministry of Transport regarding the investment in the construction of the Bac Ninh - Pha Lai (Hai Duong) expressway, the section from Ring Road 4 to National Highway 18, the proposed cost to implement the project is about 3,600 billion VND from the Bac Ninh provincial budget and other legal sources.

This is the investment project to build the National Highway 18, the section from Yen Gia intersection (Ring Road 4) to the old National Highway 18, Bac Ninh province, 10.3 km long with the starting point - km0+00 (intersection with Ring Road 4); the end point - km10+300 (intersection with National Highway 18).

The project route is implemented according to the Road Network Planning for the 2021-2030 period, with a vision to 2050, approved in Decision No. 1589/QD-TTg dated December 8, 2023 of the Prime Minister.

The project has a cross-section of 100m wide, but in this phase, the People's Committee of Bac Giang province proposed to carry out site clearance according to the planned cross-section (100m), investing in parallel roads on both sides with a cross-section of each side of the roadbed being 12m wide, and a road surface being 11m wide.

Previously, at the end of January 2020, the Bac Ninh - Hai Duong Expressway Construction Investment Project, the section passing through Bac Ninh province (total length of 20 km) was approved by the Prime Minister for investment under the PPP method, BT contract type, and assigned the People's Committee of Bac Ninh province as the competent state agency to implement.

However, on June 18, 2020, the National Assembly issued the Law on Investment under the PPP partnership method. Accordingly, the project is subject to abolition under the BT form.

According to the People's Committee of Bac Ninh province, the Bac Ninh - Hai Duong expressway section through Bac Ninh province from Ring Road 4 to Hanoi - Bac Giang expressway (about 9.7 km) has been implemented in the Investment Project to build Ring Road 4 - Hanoi Capital Region, is under construction, basically completed in 2026 and put into operation from 2027.
