Construction day and night
National Highway 1, the section passing through Phu Yen province, has some damaged, subsided areas, many potholes after continuous rain. For nearly a month now, Road Management Area 3 and other units have been repairing and maintaining some unsafe traffic locations on this route.
Scrape off the degraded road surface to rebuild a new one.
Specifically, at Km1300, Km1345 and Km1348 on National Highway 1, through Hoa Xuan Dong Commune (Dong Hoa Town, Phu Yen), the joint venture of contractors INFRASON Joint Stock Company and Phu Yen Traffic Construction Joint Stock Company is concentrating a lot of equipment and machinery to organize the scraping, leveling, and patching of damaged road sections. This is one of the locations that is seriously degraded, and is prioritized by the units to ensure safety and smoothness for vehicles to pass through.
Mr. Nguyen Duc Duy, Construction Director of INFRASOL Joint Stock Company, said: "The contractor received the handover of the site in weather conditions that often rained, so the construction organization was greatly affected. On rainy days, we focused on scraping, leveling, and rolling the lanes to ensure safer conditions for vehicles. When the weather was sunny, we focused on scraping, regenerating, and paving the asphalt to restore the road surface. This is a road section with weak and complicated soil, so in addition to scraping and treating the foundation, we had to spread 2 more layers of thick asphalt to ensure smoothness. The contractor mobilized forces to speed up the progress; organized overtime, and worked through the night to ensure the repair was completed before the Lunar New Year 2024."
Mr. Nghiem Dinh Nghi, construction supervisor, Kien Viet Design Consulting Joint Stock Company, shared: "At the end of the year, the traffic volume on National Highway 1 is very large. In the condition that the road surface is being exploited, we can only construct half of the road surface, then restore it and then proceed to construct the remaining half, so the progress is quite slow. In addition, the consulting and supervising contractor coordinates with construction units to deploy many solutions to ensure traffic safety with barriers, warnings at both ends and traffic controllers to ensure safe and effective construction."
Previously, Road Management Area 3 also completed the project of adjusting the traffic light intersection organization plan at Km1301+900 - Km1302+150 (Chi Thanh Town, Tuy An District). This project contributes to improving the intersection area and completing the traffic safety system at this potential traffic accident point.
Ensuring safety on the line
According to Road Management Area 3, in June 2023, the Road Management Department will supplement capital for maintenance activities in 2023. Phu Yen has 12 projects; of which, Road Management Area 3 was assigned 4 projects. To date, 1 project has been completed. The unit is focusing on implementing 3 items: repairing damaged roadbeds, road surfaces, asphalt concrete pavement to maintain road surfaces; repairing drainage systems, strengthening traffic safety systems on some sections of National Highway 1 through Tuy An District, Tuy Hoa City and Dong Hoa Town.
Construction while ensuring traffic flow
Mr. Nguyen Thanh Binh, Deputy Director of Road Management Area 3, added: "Since the beginning of 2023, Road Management Area 3 has been assigned to be the investor of 17 periodic repair projects on National Highway 1 through Phu Yen province. Up to now, the unit has completed and put into use 14 projects; 3 projects are still under construction. In the context of limited funding, we prioritize construction at more severely damaged locations to ensure smooth travel for people. For the projects under construction, Road Management Area 3 directs units to speed up construction progress day and night to ensure the return of the site for people to travel before December 20. For the remaining locations, we will continue construction after the Tet holiday. Hopefully, after this handling, National Highway 1 through Phu Yen province will basically ensure smooth and safe travel".
In addition to the projects invested by Road Management Area 3, the Road Management Department also added 8 periodic repair projects on National Highway 1 through Phu Yen, invested by Project Management Board 5 and Project Management Board 8 (under the Ministry of Transport). These projects focus on repairing damaged sections of the roadbed, road surface, asphalt concrete pavement for road surface maintenance, repairing the rainwater drainage system, and completing the traffic safety system on National Highway 1, through Song Cau Town and Tuy An District. Currently, the investors are urgently selecting contractors to soon implement the construction projects to repair damaged and degraded sections, ensuring smooth and safe traffic on National Highway 1.
