The two roads linking Long Thành International Airport, T1 and T2, are largely complete, with combined investment exceeding VND 2.63 trillion. Construction began in July 2023. The roads connect the airport to National Highway 51, the Biên Hòa–Vũng Tàu Expressway and the Ho Chi Minh City–Long Thành–Dầu Giây Expressway. At the time, the airport’s first phase was expected to begin commercial operations in less than two months.

T1 is the main road into the airport. It runs about 3.8 km from the airport’s western gate toward the Biên Hòa–Vũng Tàu Expressway and National Highway 51, and connects with Provincial Road 25C. Road construction, signs, markings and roadside landscaping are complete, and T1 is now in use. Before the airport begins commercial operations, T1 primarily serves construction traffic carrying machinery, equipment, materials and large structural components.

T2 is about 3.5 km long and runs parallel to the Biên Hòa–Vũng Tàu Expressway. It has four lanes and a design speed of 100 km/h. It will connect the airport directly to the Ho Chi Minh City–Long Thành–Dầu Giây Expressway. The associated interchange also connects to the Biên Hòa–Vũng Tàu Expressway below. The bridge ramps leading onto the expressway are complete and await coordinated opening with the connecting roads.

Once T2 opens, it will provide airport access for vehicles from Ho Chi Minh City, the Nhơn Trạch industrial park and surrounding areas, serving passenger and freight transport. The multiple connections formed by the two roads and their interchanges are expected to help distribute traffic around the airport.
