The expressway projects, which are part of the national road network draft plan for the 2021-30 period with a vision to 2050, were discussed at a workshop held in Cần Thơ City in the delta recently. Under the draft plan, the south would have an additional 670km of expressways by 2025 and 300km by 2030.
