Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh has requested the highest sense of responsibility and the engagement of the whole political system to accelerate site clearance for national key transport projects.
In Telegram 80/CD-TTg dated August 16, 2024, PM Chinh said site clearance, resettlement and technical infrastructure relocation for a number of projects have still lagged behind schedule, affecting the progress of many that are scheduled to complete next year.
These projects include the eastern North-South Expressway in the 2021-2025 period, Tuyen Quang-Ha Giang, Bien Hoa-Vung Tau, and Hoa Lien-Tuy Loan expressways, Ho Chi Minh Belt Road No.3, component projects No.1 and 3 of Khanh Hoa-Buon Ma Thuot expressway, according to the telegram.
The Governmental leader asked leaders of related localities to mobilize the general strength of the whole political system, organizations and unions in site clearance work, work directly with local residents to flexibly deal with their requests, and coordinate with investors to prioritize site clearance in major locations.
For projects that are expected to be completed in 2025, it is necessary to speed up the construction of resettlement areas and the relocation of high-voltage power line systems, striving to hand over the ground to the projects by August 30, 2024.
Specifically, provinces and cities namely Tuyen Quang, Quang Binh, Quang Tri, Da Nang, Phu Yen, Khanh Hoa, Dong Nai, Binh Duong were asked to direct departments, sectors and localities to mobilize maximum resources to cope with difficulties and problems so as to hand over the entire sites for the eastern North-South expressway in the 2021 – 2025 period, Tuyen Quang - Ha Giang, Hoa Lien - Tuy Loan, Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot, and Bien Hoa - Vung Tau expressways, and Belt Road No. 3 of Ho Chi Minh City.
Related cities and provinces were requested to coordinate closely with the Ministry of Industry and Trade, and the Vietnam Electricity to hasten the relocation of high-voltage power line systems, especially in localities with heavy workloads.__(VLLF)
