This expressway is divided into component projects, with the People's Committees of 4 provinces and cities as the managing agencies.
According to the report of the Ministry of Construction, the site clearance work has been completed 99% of the workload. Currently, there is only 1 rest stop location in Can Tho, 2 households in Soc Trang have not yet handed over the site.
Concluding the meeting, Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh said that according to the plan, by 2030, 1,200 km of expressway must be built in the Mekong Delta region, of which about 400 - 600 km must be completed during this term alone.
In particular, the Chau Doc - Can Tho - Soc Trang expressway is a vital route passing through 4 localities in the dynamic region of the Southwest, along with a series of other strategic transport infrastructure projects in the region such as the North - South expressway, Ho Chi Minh City Ring Road 3, etc. When completed, the project will contribute to removing bottlenecks in transport infrastructure in the Mekong Delta.
