Central Hue City People's Council on August 20 approved a resolution listing transport infrastructure projects to be developed under public-private partnership (PPP) arrangements, including the proposed East North-South Boulevard, with an estimated investment of VND20 trillion (about $760 million).

The boulevard is planned to start at Provincial Road 9, connecting with National Highway 49F at Phong Dien Industrial Park. It will run parallel to and on both sides of the planned North-South high-speed railway through Hue, ending at the main road of the Chan May urban area.

The approximately 75-km route will have six lanes, with three lanes in each direction, and will be designed to urban road standards.

During the planning process, Hue authorities proposed adding a roughly 20-km section from La Son across Tam Giang Lagoon, following Provincial Road 14A before connecting with the main road of the Chan May urban area.
