According to regulations, rest stops are one of the mandatory conditions for the project to be eligible to collect tolls, so the delay has directly affected the implementation plan.

Tolls are calculated based on the actual distance traveled by vehicles on the route. According to the project, toll collection will be organized for North-South expressway projects over a period of 7 years, directly organized by the Vietnam Road Department. After this deadline, the management agency will consider plans to exploit and manage infrastructure appropriate to each stage of development. When the component projects simultaneously collect tolls, the expected revenue will reach nearly 3,000 billion VND per year, after deducting the costs of organizing toll collection and operating the system.
