Efforts to ensure traffic after storms

Despite numerous efforts, for more than three months now, Typhoon No. 3 (Yagi) has continued to leave severe consequences in Cao Bang .

According to information from Cao Bang Road Construction Joint Stock Company: Due to the impact of typhoon No. 3, National Highway 34, the section passing through Cao Bang province, has suffered serious landslides with 359 locations of positive slope landslides, with an estimated volume of approximately 123,000 m3; 54 locations of negative slope landslides and more than 29 locations of damaged road surface.

Throughout the period before, during, and after the storms, hundreds of officials, engineers, and traffic workers of Cao Bang Road Management Joint Stock Company overcame difficulties and readily faced dangers to keep roads open and ensure smooth traffic flow on the routes.

Cao Bang Road Management Joint Stock Company mobilized vehicles and machinery to repair the road surface on several traffic routes after the impact of typhoon No. 3.

Since the beginning of the rainy season, the unit has mobilized more than 20 excavators and nearly 30 transport vehicles to work continuously and non-stop to clear the road and remove landslides on National Highway 34.

After much effort, the road management unit has now completed the landslide clearing work, ensuring traffic flow on National Highway 34 and facilitating the movement of people.

To date, landslides blocking roads have been thoroughly addressed; however, many sections of the road surface in Nguyen Binh, Bao Lac, and Bao Lam districts are still peeling, cracking, and experiencing continuous landslides on both the positive and negative slopes, along with numerous uneven depressions that hinder traffic flow and pose potential safety risks.

To fully restore the transportation system on the route, the Cao Bang Department of Transport is coordinating with relevant agencies to develop a plan to propose to the Ministry of Transport to issue a construction order, as a basis for carrying out repairs and restoring traffic at locations with complex damage.
