An expressway has been proposed to run 60 kilometers in Dong Nai Province as part of a connection between HCMC and the highlands hill resort town Da Lat.

The extension, called Dau Giay – Tan Phu Expressway, will be 17 meters wide, and have four lanes for vehicles to move at 100 kph, according to a recent proposal by Thang Long Project Management Board, a unit under the Ministry of Transport, to the ministry.

Built under the public-private partnerships format, the expressway will start from the intersection of National Highway 1 and Ho Chi Minh City – Long Thanh – Dau Giay Expressway in Dong Nai’s Thong Nhat District, and end at the intersection with National Highway 20 in Tan Phu District in Dong Nai, a HCMC's neighbor.
