HCMC – Dong Nai authorities have given their consent to the investment plan for a section of HCMC Beltway No. 4 that will pass through the province.
On July 24, the Dong Nai People’s Committee sent a document to the Ba Ria-Vung Tau authorities expressing their agreement with the scale and schedule of the section of HCMC Beltway No. 4 that will cross the province.
According to the plan, the section passing through Dong Nai will have a width of 22 meters, with four lanes for vehicles, two emergency lanes, and a system of collecting roads in residential areas.
The pre-feasibility study is expected to be approved in the fourth quarter of this year, as per the agreement by the Dong Nai authority. Compensation for site clearance, resettlement, and construction in several categories is projected to be completed in the second quarter of 2025.
The selection of contractors and work on the project will begin in 2025, with a scheduled completion in the fourth quarter of 2027. If everything proceeds smoothly, the project could be opened to traffic in the first half of 2028.

The project requires an investment of VND100,000 billion and has a starting point intersecting with the Bien Hoa-Vung Tau Expressway and an end point at Hiep Phuoc port in HCMC.
