The project is part of the investment project to restore and renovate National Highway 20 in Dong Nai and Lam Dong provinces under the BT contract. According to the plan, the route will be completed and put into use in 2019.
Since October 2020, due to lack of capital, the project has stopped construction since October 2020, waiting for competent authorities to review and handle the project's capital source.
At the time of suspension, the project had completed 70% of the work volume.
Based on the proposal of the Ministry of Transport and the locality, the Government has agreed to stop investing in the Bao Loc City bypass route under the BT form and organize the establishment of a new project for the remaining routes using public investment capital.
