Vangvieng-Luang Prabang expressway route approved
The government recently gave its approval to the route of the planned Vangvieng-Luang Prabang expressway – a highway that will shorten the drive between the two tourist hotspots to about 90 minutes.
The go-ahead is another step towards the start of construction of the four-lane 136.9-km road.
No start date has yet been set because there are still more preparatory works to be done, according to a source from the Laos-China joint venture company that is overseeing construction of the road.
