The first route links Malipo county, Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous prefecture of southwest China's Yunnan province with Nghia Thuan commune, Quang Ba district, Ha Giang province of Vietnam.

The other connects China’s Yang Wan township with Bach Dich commune, Yen Minh district, Ha Giang province.

These are important border roads for residents on both sides of the border. The two routes will promote exchanges between people in the border areas of the two countries and cooperation between the Wenshan Zhuang and Miao Autonomous prefecture and Ha Giang province.
