The North–South Expressway East (Vietnamese: Đường cao tốc Bắc–Nam phía Đông) is an expressway in Vietnam located very close to National Route 1, acting as an artery traversing the entirety of Vietnam from North to South. Similar to National Route 1, the expressway starts from Lạng Sơn and ends at Cà Mau.[1] [2] At the northern border, the expressway will connect to Nanning-Youyiguan Expressway in China.
The project has a total length of 2063km (1,282miles), starting at Huu Nghi border gate (Lạng Sơn) and terminating at the ring road of Cà Mau city. The control points of the expressway are located in the Eastern Transport Corridor, running almost parallel to the upgraded and expanded National Highway 1. The North-South Expressway is being built with 18 sections acting as nodes: Lạng Sơn, Hà Nội, Ninh Bình, Thanh Hóa, Hà Tĩnh, Quảng Trị, Đà Nẵng, Quảng Ngãi, Bình Định, Nha Trang, Phan Thiết, Dầu Giây, Long Thành, Bến Lức,HCMC - Trung Luong, My Thuan, Cần Thơ and Cà Mau, with a total cost estimate of VND 350 trillion (equivalent to US$18.5 billion).[3]
The transport corridor on the north–south axis from Lạng Sơn to Cà Mau plays a very important role: connecting the political capital of Hanoi with the economic center of Ho Chi Minh City, passing through 32 provinces and cities accounting for 62.1% of the population, contributing 65.7% of the gross domestic product, affecting 74% of seaports (classes I, II), 75% of economic regions of the country and especially connecting 4 key economic regions (North, Central, South and Mekong Delta), connecting 16 out of 23 airports (91% of passenger traffic). This is the most important transport corridor in the transport infrastructure system of Vietnam.
In 2019, the Ministry of Transport decided to exclude foreign investors from bidding on the North-South Expressway, mainly to prevent Chinese companies from participating. Public backlash was feared if Chinese companies would collect toll fees, due to strong anti-Chinese sentiment in the country, and national security concerns played a part as well.[4] [5] However, lack of bidders has led to low competition between the bids,[6] and two out of five sections had not attracted any bids.[7]
According to 2017 estimates, yearly total transport volume over Vietnam's north-south corridor would be 45.37 million passengers and 62.27 million tons of goods by 2020, which would exceed the capacity of current infrastructure by 10% to 25%. Four goals of the project have been formulated by the Ministry of Transport:[8]
North, Central and Southern Vietnam, and Mekong Delta
From 2004 to 2021, Vietnam only has about 1163km (723miles) of expressways put into operation, equal to 18% of the plan, the average construction speed is 74 km/year, only 1.5% of the development speed of expressways in China during the same period; has not yet fulfilled the goal of "completing and putting into use about 2,000 km of expressways by 2020" according to Resolution 13-NQ/TW.. of the 11th Central Committee of the Communist Party of Vietnam (just reached 48%). The implementation of investment in expressways has not been rational, and has not been distributed harmoniously among key economic regions, dynamic regions and disadvantaged areas.
The idea of building the North-South Expressway appeared before 2010, when the demand for road travel between provinces along the north-south axis increased rapidly, while the existing National Route 1 was overloaded. although it has been widened at least four lanes, and at the same time build a new route avoiding urban areas. However, the expansion capacity of National Route 1 becomes limited because people live on both sides of the road, so the cost of clearing is very large. In addition, National Route 1 almost all sections run along the same corridor with North–South Railway, the possibility of expansion is not feasible. The construction of the North-South Expressway as well as other expressway systems in Vietnam aims to separate passenger cars, non-stop passenger cars and long-distance trucks from the traffic of rudimentary vehicles and two- to three-wheelers, passenger cars, passenger cars often pick up and drop off passengers along the road and trucks, creating conditions for long-distance vehicles to run faster and safer.
The predecessors of the North-South Expressways are the Phap Van–Cau Gie bypass completed in 1998, along with the NH1 bypass, the Phap Van–Bac Giang section. At that time, these roads were only bypasses of National Highway 1 and did not meet expressway standards. In 2012, the East North-South Expressway running through the two areas above was built on the basis of upgrading the existing bypass, building overpasses at sections through Phap Van urban area and parallel roads for two-wheelers.
The first expressway completed in the North-South Expressway system is Phap Van–Cau Gie Expressway, which opened to traffic in 2002.
According to the original plan, the North-South Expressway is long to the east, starting point from Phap Van (Hanoi), ending point is Can Tho city. However, the system planning for the 2021-2030 period has been adjusted. According to which, the North-South Expressway is long, the starting point is from Huu Nghi border gate (Lang Son) and the end point is Ca Mau City. Accordingly, two expressways Hanoi–Lang Son (old CT.03) and Can Tho–Ca Mau expressway (old CT.19) are combined into the North–South Expressway planning.
The detailed planning of the entire North-South expressway east of CT.01 was announced by the Prime Minister in January 2010. There are 16 main sections of the route from north to south. The total length of the route from Hanoi to Can Tho is 1811 km.

In September 2021, the Government announced the Road Network Plan for the 2021–2030 period, with a vision to 2050,[9] re-planned the North-South Expressway from Huu Nghi border gate (Cao Lộc, Lạng Sơn) to Ca Mau city (Ca Mau province) with a length of about 2,063 km, scale from 4 to 10 lanes. The whole route is divided into 3 major segments, the Hanoi to Can Tho segment is CT.01 in the 2010 master plan. The total number of subdivided sections is 38. All will be built before 2030.
