The bridge and road route is about 3.66 km long, with a cross-section of 30 - 40 m, 4 - 6 lanes, passing through District 6, District 8 and Binh Chanh District, connecting Pham Van Chi Street to Nguyen Van Linh Street. The project is divided into 2 components: compensation, support, resettlement and infrastructure relocation (3,300 billion VND); main construction and installation (2,900 billion VND).

Binh Tien Bridge and Road will create new traffic directions, reducing the load on existing roads such as Nguyen Huu Tho, Duong Ba Trac, Pham Hung and National Highway 50 - which are often congested. This is also a solution to meet the increasing traffic demand when Ben Luc - Long Thanh Expressway comes into operation.

The project is expected to promote the socio-economic development of Ho Chi Minh City, enhance connectivity between urban centers, seaports and industrial parks, and contribute to completing the city's transport system by 2030 and vision after 2050.
