The rest stop at Km 205+092 on the Vinh Hao - Phan Thiet expressway, in the section passing through Ham Thuan Bac commune, Lam Dong province (formerly Ham Thuan Bac district, Binh Thuan province), has officially commenced operations.
The rest stop at Km 205+092 has been invested in comprehensively and meticulously.
The rest stop at Km 205+092 covers an area of approximately 10 hectares, meeting 4-star standards, and consists of two opposite stations (on the right and left sides of the route), each with an area of approximately 5 hectares.
The Km 205+092 rest stop, invested in by TTC Chau Thanh Trading and Service Joint Stock Company, was put into operation to meet the needs of drivers and passengers for rest and recovery on long journeys, contributing to ensuring traffic safety and improving the efficiency of the Vinh Hao - Phan Thiet expressway.
The station is located on an important transportation axis, helping to shorten travel time from the central provinces to Ho Chi Minh City, reducing congestion on National Highway 1A.
Currently, the main components such as restrooms, access roads to and from the expressway, parking lots, service areas, etc., have been completed and are operational from January 26, 2026.
According to the investor, the gas station and electric vehicle charging area have been completed and are expected to start selling fuel on Wednesday, February 11, 2026. This is a positive sign, helping to overcome the shortage of refueling points for drivers, especially since the two gas stations on the Ho Chi Minh City - Long Thanh - Dau Giay expressway are temporarily closed, while the daily traffic volume still reaches tens of thousands of vehicles.
The gas station is scheduled to start selling fuel on Wednesday, February 11, 2026.
According to Mr. Nguyen Quang Triet, Director of Thanh Thanh Nam Joint Stock Company (a member of TTC Group), the rest stop will serve the essential needs of passengers traveling on the Vinh Hao - Phan Thiet expressway through Lam Dong province.
The station meets the needs of the people in the context of the ever-increasing traffic volume on the North-South expressway, especially during peak holiday periods.
"Participating in the rest stop model not only expands the business type but also affirms the role of TTC Group in accompanying social life," Mr. Nguyen Quang Triet affirmed.
The restroom area is well-ventilated and clean.
The official opening of the Km 205+092 rest stop marks a significant milestone in the completion of the service infrastructure system on the North-South Expressway, contributing to improving the quality of service for road users and increasing the efficiency of the route's operation.
At the same time, the project also plays a crucial role in forming a synchronized and modern network of rest stops, in line with the national transportation infrastructure development orientation.
Through this, TTC aims to redefine the rest stop model, not just as a place to refuel or rest, but as a service complex meeting the criteria of cleanliness, safety, convenience, scientific organization, and diverse services.
