According to the plan, the DT 995B project is invested in upgrading the entire route to a scale of 6 car lanes in the period 2031 - 2050. Thus, section 2 of this route needs to be upgraded to 6 lanes to comply with the plan.

At the meeting with the Traffic Project Management Board and related departments and branches on June 28, Mr. Le Ngoc Khanh, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Ba Ria - Vung Tau province, agreed to adjust the cross-section scale of section 2 from 4 to 6 lanes, with a cross-section width of 39 m.
