The Tien Yen–Lang Son–Cao Bang Expressway (Vietnamese: Đường cao tốc Tiên Yên – Lạng Sơn – Cao Bằng) is a planned expressway in Vietnam. It will connect Tiên Yên with Trà Lĩnh, a border town further north. It will run roughly parallel to National Road 4A. The road is envisioned as a part of an economic corridor from Haiphong to Chongqing and Europe through Khorgos. The government also expects the expressway to bring Cao Bằng Province economically and culturally closer to the political center Hanoi.[1][2][3]
