By the morning of July 29, the peeling road surface had been repaired. The construction unit proceeded to divert and regulate traffic to construct the toll lane island.

Previously, since July 25, people discovered potholes on the Dien Chau - Bai Vot highway, with some spots of the road surface peeling off. It is known that the location of the potholes is at Km 430+500, passing through Dien Chau district (Nghe An).

Mr. Nguyen Quoc Viet said that the peeling location on the Dien Chau - Bai Vot highway is the area where a toll station was added. The peeling location is the waiting area for the construction of the toll lane island and was poured with poor concrete to serve the traffic opening on April 29.

The construction unit is installing corrugated iron fences to build a toll lane island on the Dien Chau - Bai Vot expressway in the South - North direction.

Specifically, at Km 430+500 Dien Chau - Bai Vot expressway, there is an additional toll station on the main route (South - North) with a single-lane cement concrete road surface structure and barriers.

To serve the traffic opening on April 29 as directed by the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Transport, the contractor has completed the construction of the road surface for vehicles. The toll island between the two outgoing lanes, 2m wide and 33m long, has not been constructed yet. The contractor has temporarily poured low-grade concrete to serve the traffic opening. During the exploitation process, there have been phenomena of peeling and some localized potholes appearing at the construction location of the toll islands.

Since July 26, the project enterprise has directed the contractor to implement measures to organize construction and repair the peeling road surface locations. Specifically, the contractor has placed signs, organized guards, regulated and divided traffic, and limited the speed through the construction area to 50km/h.

The construction unit dug up the poor concrete layer where the road surface was peeling off to carry out the construction of the toll lane island.

After repairing the peeling points, on the morning of July 29, the contractor proceeded to dig and remove the poor concrete layer to construct the toll lane island.

“It has been raining for the past few days so construction has not been possible. Currently, the contractor is installing corrugated iron fences, deploying guarding measures, being on duty, and regulating traffic to construct the toll lane island. The construction is expected to be completed in about 10 days,” informed Mr. Nguyen Quoc Viet.

Dien Chau - Bai Vot Expressway is one of 11 component projects of the North - South Eastern Expressway Project Phase I (2017-2020) and is one of 3 component projects invested in the form of public-private partnership (PPP).
