According to the projected timeline, investment preparation will be carried out in the 2026-2027 period; compensation, support, resettlement, and groundbreaking will commence in 2027. The projects are expected to be largely completed by 2030 and put into operation in 2031.

According to Minister of Construction Tran Hong Minh, all three projects are designed with a 4-lane expressway scale, including emergency stopping lanes, consistent with specialized planning and transportation demand forecasts, and meeting the National Technical Regulation on Expressways QCVN 117:2024/BGTVT.

Regarding design speed, in mountainous areas with difficult terrain and steep slopes, a design speed of 80 km/h has been chosen to ensure technical requirements and safety. Sections through flat areas have design speeds ranging from 100 to 120 km/h.
