According to the General Planning for the Construction of Hanoi Capital City until 2030 and with a vision to 2050, approved by the Prime Minister , the Tay Thang Long road is the main traffic artery connecting the West Lake area and the north of Thang Long Bridge with the Son Tay urban area.

The project starts at the intersection with Vo Chi Cong Road (Ring Road 2) and ends at the intersection with National Highway 32 in Son Tay town. The total length of the route is 33.18km (Tay Ho 300m; Bac Tu Liem 8.56km; Dan Phuong 10km; Phuc Tho 13.4km; Son Tay 920m).

The West Thang Long section from Vo Chi Cong Street to Pham Van Dong Street, approximately 2km in length, has been completed.

To date, according to the Hanoi Department of Transport, 6.04km have been completed according to the plan; 9.04km are currently under study for investment and construction; and 18.1km have not yet been studied for investment.

Currently, 4 sections of the route have been completed according to the plan (6.04km): 1 section in Tay Ho district, 300m long; 2 sections in Bac Tu Liem district, 4.82km long; and 1 section in Son Tay town, 920m long.

Two sections of the route are currently under investment and undergoing investment procedures (9.04km): one section in Bac Tu Liem district, with a length of 3.24km (from Van Tien Dung to Pham Van Dong); and one section in Dan Phuong district, with a length of 5.8km (from Ring Road 3.5 to Dan Hoai Canal Road).

Three sections of the route (18.1km) currently lack investment projects: one section in Bac Tu Liem district with a length of 500m (a multi-level underpass with Pham Van Dong road); one section in Dan Phuong district with a length of 4.2km (the section from Dan Hoai canal road to La Thach dike); and one section in Phuc Tho district with a length of 13.4km.
