The North-South Expressway section through Thanh Hoa and Nghe An has no gas stations yet.
According to information from Phuc Thanh Hung Joint Stock Company - one of the enterprises constructing the North - South expressway project, the North - South expressway from Ninh Binh to Bai Vot (Ha Tinh) is about 210 km long, currently there is only 1 main rest stop in Ninh Binh province with a place to fill up with gas.
This reality is due to the fact that during the process of organizing the bidding for the selection of contractors to perform the rest stop service by the Ministry of Transport, although they have been selected, the process of completing the procedures, documents, construction and operation of these rest stops still takes a long time, expected to take half a year or the end of 2025 to complete.
According to the report of the Ministry of Transport, while waiting for the rest stops to complete the investment and put into operation, the Ministry has directed agencies and units to organize 8 temporary rest stops along the North - South expressway in the East without rest stops. In particular, the section from Hanoi to Vinh, in addition to the 2 rest stops currently operating on the Hanoi - Ninh Binh section, which are the rest stop at Km 227 of the Cau Gie - Ninh Binh expressway (invested by VEC, Ha Nam province) and Xuan Khiem station at Km 269 of the Cao Bo - Mai Son expressway, Ninh Binh province, the Ministry has also arranged 4 temporary stations.
Accordingly, 4 temporary rest stops from Xuan Khiem rest stop (Ninh Binh) along the North-South expressway in the East to Bai Vot (Ha Tinh) include: location 1 at Km 3.29 + 700 in the Mai Son - National Highway 45 section; location 2 at Truong Vinh tunnel entrance - Km 386 + 360 in the Nghi Son - Dien Chau section and the 3rd temporary stop located at Than Vu tunnel entrance - Km 438 in the Dien Chau - Bai Vot section (each location has a temporary rest stop on the left and right of the route), and to Bai Vot there is another temporary stop.
There are no gas stations at these rest stops, so when vehicles need gas, they can go down to the intersections or turns to fill up and then continue on the highway.
A representative of the 6th Committee of the Ministry of Transport in charge of the North-South Expressway section through Nghe An said that the official rest stop for the section through Nghe An is located in Dien Cat commune, but it will take about a year to complete. Therefore, at the intersections, the Ministry recommends that localities coordinate to invest in building gas stations to make it more convenient for vehicles.
