On the afternoon of October 10, in Quang Ngai province, the Ministry of Transport coordinated with the People's Committee of Quang Ngai province and the People's Committee of Binh Dinh province to organize a launching ceremony for the 100-day emulation campaign to open tunnel 2, part of the XL02 package, and to complete the entire handover of the Quang Ngai - Hoai Nhon expressway component project, part of the North - South expressway project, eastern section, phase 2021 - 2025 (phase 2).
100 days to clear tunnel 2
The launching ceremony aims to create a competitive atmosphere and promote the sense of responsibility of cadres and workers. At the same time, it encourages initiatives, creativity, technical improvements in construction and motivates the team of cadres, engineers, workers, and related units to coordinate and organize construction day and night at the construction site. The competition will be implemented from September 22 to December 31.

Mr. Nguyen Tan Dong, Vice Chairman of the Board of Directors of Deo Ca Group, said that the unit committed to digging tunnel 2, 698 m long, under package XL02, by December 31. To achieve the goal, the unit has improved the tunnel digging method to shorten the time of 1 cycle and increased the number of construction teams from 4 conventional teams to 6 teams, helping to increase the efficiency of machinery and equipment use, reduce labor costs in 4 months, shortening the progress compared to the original plan of digging tunnel 2 in April 2024.
Accordingly, when tunnel 2 is dug, the transportation of materials and equipment to the construction site north of tunnel 3 and south of tunnel 2 will only be about 700m (instead of transporting along the old mountain pass which is 3,600m). This is also a decisive factor in accelerating and ensuring the construction progress of tunnel 3 and contributing to promoting the overall progress of the entire project.

Regarding site clearance, the project has so far handed over 80.42 km, reaching 91.4%. Of which, Quang Ngai province has handed over 53.4 km, reaching 88.5%; Binh Dinh has handed over 27.02 km, reaching 97.5%. Determining site clearance as an important task, Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh provinces also committed to handing over 100% clean site to the investor and construction contractor before December 31, 2023.
Putting innovation into practice
Mr. Dang Van Minh, Chairman of Quang Ngai Provincial People's Committee commented: After one year of implementation, the progress of completing site clearance for resettlement for the Quang Ngai - Hoai Nhon expressway project has been resolutely implemented by Quang Ngai and Binh Dinh provinces, and at the same time committed to directing departments and branches to complete 100% of project clearance before December 31, 2023.

Speaking at the launching ceremony, Mr. Nguyen Danh Huy, Deputy Minister of Transport, commended the construction unit for its initiative to shorten the tunnel construction time, applied for the first time in the project.
"We suggest promoting this initiative to popularize it, not only in tunnel construction projects on the Quang Ngai - Hoai Nhon expressway but also in the entire North - South expressway project under construction, to shorten progress and save money," said Mr. Huy.
Representatives of units signed the commitment at the launching ceremony
At the launching ceremony, representatives of Project Management Board 2 (investor), Deo Ca Group and local authorities along with contractors participating in the project signed a commitment to compete in 100 days to open tunnel 2 under package XL02 and complete the entire handover of the Quang Ngai - Hoai Nhon component project under the North - South expressway project, eastern section, phase 2021 - 2025.

There are 3 tunnels on the route (tunnel 1 is 610m long, tunnel 2 is 698m long and tunnel 3 is 3,200m long). Of these, tunnel 3 is the largest tunnel newly built on the North - South Expressway, phase 2.
