These are 3 projects under the investment project to build some sections of the North-South expressway in the 2017-2020 period, invested under the public-private partnership (PPP) method.

Based on the proposal of the Vietnam Road Administration, the Ministry of Transport approved in principle to continue piloting the non-stop toll station model for the Dien Chau - Bai Vot, Nha Trang - Cam Lam and Cam Lam - Vinh Hao component projects according to the model of no barriers at the input, barriers at the output, and no mixed toll lanes.

Regarding the speed in the exit lane, the Ministry of Transport requires research to select the appropriate speed, minimizing design adjustments while still ensuring the system's processing speed, optimizing traffic capacity and ensuring vehicle safety.

For adjacent expressways, the Ministry requires toll stations on the main route between two expressways, to organize closed toll collection and revenue sharing. On short independent sections when adjacent expressways are not yet connected, temporary toll stations can be built on the main route to ensure independent operation. Toll stations and station buildings must be built in a streamlined and economical manner to be ready to move to the single-lane and free multi-lane phases.

The Vietnam Road Administration is assigned to review and unify technical contents, connection plans and related issues to implement the pilot model; Guide and unify design documents to adjust toll stations at projects being implemented according to the pilot model. At the same time, monitor the implementation of the pilot model at the projects; report on the assessment and summary of practical results of the pilot model implementation and propose and recommend the Ministry of Transport to consider moving to the single-lane and multi-lane free toll collection phase without barriers.

Previously, the Ministry of Transport also approved the non-stop toll station model for the Nha Trang - Cam Lam expressway. Accordingly, the entrance to the station is arranged with 1 ETC lane and an emergency lane, without barriers and toll booths. The camera equipment mounted on the gantry will automatically scan and read the ETC card affixed to the car passing through the station to deduct money. At the exit, 2 ETC lanes and 1 toll booth, 1 automatic barrier are adjusted. Vehicles pass through the barrier area at a speed of 60 km/h, instead of 40 km/h as before.
