This section of road ended Ngọc Hiển’s isolation from a car road. Phase 1 was finished in 2016. The alignment is drawn as cấp III đồng bằng, design speed 80 km/h, and the cross-section still matches cấp V, about 40 km/h. Come in the morning so the gate farther south is still open. That gate runs 07:00–18:00, or 06:30–17:30.

The marker, the ship panel, and the two seas are past cầu Ông Tình. A stop on this bank is the town on the way.
