The Government Office has just sent a document to the ministers of the Ministries of Transport, Planning and Investment, Finance, and Justice; and the Chairmen of the People's Committees of Nam Dinh and Ha Nam provinces, conveying the directives of Deputy Prime Minister Tran Hong Ha regarding the investment plan for the construction project of the Ha Nam – Nam Dinh expressway.
Accordingly, the Deputy Prime Minister assigned the People's Committee of Nam Dinh province to preside over and coordinate with the Ministry of Transport, the People's Committee of Ha Nam province, and relevant agencies to prepare a pre-feasibility study report for phase I of the Ha Nam - Nam Dinh expressway construction project, ensuring it conforms to planning regulations, complies with the law, and avoids losses and waste.
Regarding the project's managing agency, the Deputy Prime Minister instructed the Ministry of Transport to coordinate with the Ministry of Planning and Investment and other relevant agencies to report to the competent authority for consideration and decision in accordance with the law; and at the same time, propose the reimbursement of investment preparation costs (if any).
Previously, the People's Committee of Nam Dinh province submitted a proposal to the Government requesting permission to prepare a pre-feasibility study report for the construction project of the Ha Nam - Nam Dinh expressway, phase 1, from Phu Ly city, Ha Nam province to Nam Dinh city, Nam Dinh province. The funding for preparing the pre-feasibility study report will be provided by the People's Committee of Nam Dinh province.
According to the proposal from the People's Committee of Nam Dinh province, the project, with a total length of approximately 25.1 km, is proposed to be a complete 4-lane expressway with emergency stopping lanes on both sides and parallel roads on both sides. The proposed investment plan is a combination of public investment from the Government's prioritized national key projects, provincial budget, and other legitimate sources of funding.
The land clearance work for the Ha Nam – Nam Dinh expressway construction project is being carried out by the People's Committees of Nam Dinh and Ha Nam provinces, who have committed to allocating their own budgets.
For the BOT section (from My Loc toll station in Nam Dinh province to National Highway 10, Nam Dinh city, about 3.9 km long), the toll collection period will expire in 2028. After receiving approval from the competent authority to prepare the project's pre-feasibility study report, the Nam Dinh Provincial People's Committee will develop a negotiation plan to liquidate the contract in 2025 (the expected time of project commencement) using the provincial budget to invest synchronously according to the scale of the expressway on the entire route, ensuring the rights and obligations of the relevant parties.
The People's Committee of Nam Dinh province has requested the Prime Minister to assign the province as the managing agency to implement the project to complete the construction of the Ha Nam – Nam Dinh expressway.
According to the proposal of the People's Committee of Nam Dinh province, the Ha Nam - Nam Dinh expressway construction project will be implemented based on utilizing, expanding, renovating, and upgrading the entire existing road surface of National Highway 21B from Phu Ly City - Ha Nam province to Nam Dinh City - Nam Dinh province, according to the standards of a complete 4-lane expressway, with emergency stopping lanes on both sides according to TCVN 5729-2012, a design speed of 100 km/h, parallel roads, and service roads on both sides according to the standards of a Class IV road in the plains, and constructing overpasses and elevated roads at important intersections.
The total investment for the project is approximately VND 7,850 billion, including approximately VND 1,463 billion for the construction of the expressway (24 km); approximately VND 2,054 billion for the construction of bridges; approximately VND 1,219 billion for the construction of parallel roads along both sides of the route (48 km); approximately VND 326 billion for the construction of the lighting system, ITS system and some auxiliary items; preliminary land acquisition costs of approximately VND 1,000 billion; consulting fees, project management fees, and other costs: approximately VND 506 billion; and contingency costs of approximately VND 1,282 billion.
If approved by the competent authorities, the Ha Nam – Nam Dinh expressway construction project will be implemented from 2025 to 2028.
