Dong Nai proposes to add intersection of Highway 319 to the Ho Chi Minh City

Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee has just sent a document to the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Construction regarding the investment in completing the intersection of Highway 319 with Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh Expressway.

In the document, the People's Committee of Dong Nai province said that in the current situation of the province's budget capital facing many difficulties, the investment in completing the intersection of Highway 319 connecting to the project to expand the Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh Expressway section is not financially feasible.

Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh - Dau Giay Expressway will be expanded to 8 - 10 lanes.

Furthermore, the Long Thanh High-Tech Industrial Park Project, with an area of 410 hectares, has attracted 20 FDI investors with a capital of about 400 million USD.

It is expected that by 2026, this High-Tech Park will attract about 20,000 workers.

Currently, the intersection of Highway 319, the branch on the Nhon Trach side has been invested by Dong Nai province under the BOT form, while the branches on the Long Thanh side have not been invested in.

If not fully invested, when the expansion of the Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh expressway is completed, it will cause difficulties for vehicles moving into the Long Thanh High-Tech Industrial Park.

Therefore, to facilitate traffic connection and attract investors to Long Thanh High-Tech Industrial Park, Dong Nai Provincial People's Committee proposed the Ministry of Finance and the Ministry of Construction to consider and propose the Vietnam Expressway Corporation ( VEC) to add the investment item to complete the intersection of Highway 319 to the Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh Expressway expansion project.

The Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh Expressway expansion project , with a total length of 22 km, started on August 19, 2025.

The project has a total investment of more than 16,300 billion VND, of which public investment capital is 6,500 billion VND and VEC mobilized capital is more than 9,800 billion VND.

Construction time starts from August 19, 2025 and is basically completed by the end of 2026. As for Long Thanh bridge, the main bridge is expected to be closed in December 2026 and the remaining items will be completed in the first quarter of 2027.
