Project Management Board 4 has reported on the implementation of the project to upgrade National Highway 7, section Km0-Km36, and to handle landslides caused by storms and floods in the Khe Thoi - Nam Can section. Accordingly, up to now, this project has not been completed as planned. |
 |
The project to upgrade National Highway 7, section Km0-Km36, and handle landslides caused by storms and floods in the Khe Thoi - Nam Can section was approved by the Ministry of Transport on March 18, 2022 and officially started construction in September 2022. The project has a total investment of over VND 1,300 billion with a total length of 27.5km passing through Dien Chau, Yen Thanh and Do Luong districts of Nghe An province. |
 |
| The project is divided into 3 construction packages 01, 02 and 03. Of which, package 02 is expected to be completed in July 2023 to connect with the Nghi Son - Dien Chau expressway project; the remaining 2 packages are to be completed in 2024. However, by July, all 3 construction packages have not yet reached the finish line, of which package 01 reached 72.6%, package 02 reached 69.5%, package 03 reached 79.1%. |
  |
There are many reasons why the packages cannot be completed. However, the main reason is that the project is still stuck with land clearance on the route. The land is not handed over continuously, causing the construction to be unfinished. |
 |
According to the report, by mid-July, Yen Thanh, Do Luong, and Dien Chau districts had handed over 52.84km/55.4km of land, reaching 95.37% of the left and right routes. Many households have not yet agreed to compensation to hand over the land to the construction unit. |
 |
The railway overpass in Dien Phuc commune, Dien Chau district cannot be completed due to land acquisition problems. |
 |
The bridge is not yet completed, the road surface is narrow and right at the intersection with the railway, causing traffic congestion here. |
 |
A narrow section of old National Highway 7 through Hamlet 8, Vien Thanh Commune (Yen Thanh District) cannot be upgraded or expanded. |
  |
The slow and unfinished construction has greatly affected the lives of people living along the road and vehicles on the route. Every time a vehicle passes by, dust flies everywhere. |
 |
Project Management Board 4 (Ministry of Transport) said that this unit has sent a report to the People's Committee of Nghe An province and proposed that the province direct functional agencies and localities to hand over the remaining sections of the project no later than July 2024. For households that obstruct, oppose, and are not eligible for compensation, it is recommended that the district authorities organize construction protection no later than July this year. |
 |
However, by August 2024, the land on the route has not been handed over to continue construction to complete the project. Talking to PV Tien Phong , Mr. Nguyen Van Duong - Vice Chairman of Yen Thanh District People's Committee - said that there are still 50 households in the district that have not agreed to hand over the land to implement the construction of National Highway 7. Mr. Duong said that the district has developed a construction protection plan and is waiting for the competent authority to appraise it for implementation. |
 |
| It is known that the Ministry of Transport has extended the deadline for the bid packages to be completed in November. With the current situation, the bid packages are unlikely to achieve the expected progress. |
