Currently, the forces are urgently handling the incident to clear the tunnel in the shortest time.

Previously, on May 21, during the renovation and repair of the railway tunnel, a mass of earth and rock suddenly collapsed, blocking the tunnel. North-South railway traffic from La Hai station to Chi Thanh and vice versa was completely paralyzed.

Currently, workers of Deo Ca Group are trying to fix the landslide, striving to clear the tunnel before 12:00 on June 30.

The cause of the landslide was determined to be geological, weathered rock and soil combined with a thin roof layer (about 25m) leading to the landslide.

After the incident, Deputy Minister of Transport Nguyen Danh Huy inspected the scene and directed urgent repairs, which were expected to be completed by May 26 so that the tunnel could be cleared. However, on the morning of May 26, while the construction unit was clearing about 80 cubic meters of landslide soil in the tunnel, a large amount of soil and rock continued to slide down.

For support at the railway tunnel, Deo Ca will proactively provide machinery and materials, the investor will only support materials available at the construction site.
