On September 17, Mr. Pham Van Hoa, Deputy Director of the Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board (Traffic Board - project investor) of Khanh Hoa province, said that the unit is issuing bidding documents for the construction package of two bridges of component project 1, part of the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway project, phase 1. This is the package that Thuan An Group has requested to withdraw from the project and not continue construction.
Construction of Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot highway foundation, section through Ninh Tay commune, Ninh Hoa town, Khanh Hoa.
Previously, the Khanh Hoa Provincial Transport Department reported and proposed three options to the Provincial People's Committee to continue the project after Thuan An Group withdrew.
After that, Khanh Hoa Provincial People's Committee agreed to the plan to form a new bidding package to select contractors through open bidding online.
The construction package for two bridges on the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway worth more than VND388 billion will be selected through an open online bidding process. The bidding will be opened on September 26.
"After the open bidding and selection, the contractor will immediately start construction. Currently, the site where the bidding package is located is in the process of collecting forest products and building access roads. The clean site is expected to be completed by the end of September, which is also when the bidding for the package is completed," said Mr. Hoa.
In the early stages, due to land acquisition problems, highway construction encountered difficulties.
It is known that previously, construction package No. 02 for the construction of the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway was assigned to the consortium of Thuan An Group Joint Stock Company - Phuong Nam Construction and Mechanical Joint Stock Company - Bac Trung Nam Infrastructure Construction Joint Stock Company - 168 Vietnam Construction Group Joint Stock Company.
This package has a total value of more than 2,078 billion VND, constructing the section from Km 22 - Km 32.
In August 2023, Khanh Hoa Provincial Department of Transport signed a contract for construction package 02 with a consortium of contractors led by Thuan An Group.
According to the signed contract, Thuan An Group was assigned to undertake a workload worth nearly 400 billion VND, and then Thuan An was also advanced more than 38.8 billion VND.
Taking advantage of the land, the contractor mobilized machinery to construct the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway.
After the leader of Thuan An Group was arrested, this enterprise sent a document requesting the People's Committee of Khanh Hoa province to terminate the contract with the joint venture project on the Khanh Hoa - Buon Ma Thuot expressway.
On June 25, the Khanh Hoa Provincial Department of Transport met with the members of the consortium and agreed to let Thuan An Group terminate the contract. Thuan An Group then returned more than 38.8 billion VND in advance to the investor.
On July 12, the Khanh Hoa Provincial Department of Transport and the joint venture contractors signed an addendum to adjust the number of members from four to three. The remaining three contractors in the joint venture committed to implementing the signed contract.
The Khanh Hoa (Khanh Hoa) - Buon Ma Thuot (Dak Lak) expressway project is 117km long, with a total investment of VND21,935 billion. Phase 1 has four lanes and will start construction in June 2023.
The project is divided into three component projects. The People's Committees of Khanh Hoa and Dak Lak provinces are the investors of component projects 1 and 3.
The Ministry of Transport is the managing agency of component project 2.
