​The Phan Thiet - Dau Giay route was evaluated as an important part of the North-South Highway, It has been under preparation for 10 years and is in the ground preparation phase.
 
Recently, on March 9th afternoon, after the field survey, Deputy Minister of Transport - Nguyen Ngoc Dong had a meeting with the provincial People's Committee to prepare for the starting the project in 2019.


​10 years of preparation
According to the representative of the CTCP Transportation Design Consultancy Company (TEDI), Phan Thiet - Dau Giay highway project (formerly Dau Giay - Phan Thiet) started in 2008. Under the auspices of the World Bank (WB) in the form of Public - Private Partnership (PPP). By 2014, consultants and other stakeholders completed the alignment and completed site demarcation for area clearance with the project scale of 4 driving lanes with the total length of 101km (98km of main road). At the same time, Dong Nai has actively prepared and basically completed the clearance dossier waiting for the implementation decision. However, due to many factors, there are difficulties in attracting investors for the project.
 
In order to realize the goal of constructing the North-South highway, the National Assembly has decided to invest in the construction of some sections of the eastern North-South highway term 2017 - 2020, including Phan Thiet - Dau Giay section with 6 lanes. Thus, the project must adjust the area of land acquisition to ensure the ground for 6 lanes as requested by the National Assembly.

Mr. Nguyen Xuan Lam, Deputy General Director of Thang Long PMU, who was assigned as project owner, said that from 2014, after the investment policy, the site clearance for 4 lanes has been completed and the locality has basically implemented this work. However, due to the changing of size of the project to 6 lanes, Thang Long PMU worked with localities to announce the changes in clearance areas, re-negotiation on material mines, landfill of the project and work exchange next time.
