The Ministry of Transport has just issued a document responding to the petition of voters in Quang Nam province regarding upgrading and expanding a number of national highways through the area.
According to Quang Nam voters, national highways: 14B (through Nam Giang and Dai Loc districts), 14D (through Nam Giang district), 14H (from Nong Son bridge, Que Trung commune to Truong Son Dong road, Nong Son district, Quang Nam province) have a very large traffic volume while the road surface is still narrow and degraded.
From there, voters recommended that the Ministry of Transport soon have a policy to invest in expanding and upgrading the above national highways.
