Toll fees to rise on two expressways

HCMC – The Vietnam Expressway Corporation (VEC) will hike toll fees on heavy-duty trucks on the Cau Gie-Ninh Binh and HCMC-Long Thanh-Dau Giay expressways, starting September 1. The fee hike will affect trucks weighing 10 tons or above, and container trucks. On the HCMC-Long Thanh-Dau Giay expressway, the longest segment between Long Phuoc Commune and Dau Giay Townlet will incur a fee of VND250,000 for group-4 trucks, up from VND236,000. VEC has clarified that these toll fee adjustments are aligned with Government Resolution 35/2016, designed to support business development until 2020. The corporation has been offering a toll discount of 20% for group-4 vehicles and 25% for group-5 vehicles on these routes since 2016 as per this resolution.
