Even though outside, every family is gathering at the moment of transition between the old year 2024 and the new year 2025, the Bien Hoa - Vung Tau expressway construction site is still lit up, paving asphalt all night long.

At the moment of transition from the old year 2024 to the new year 2025, when the street corners are bustling with music, many people drive to watch fireworks, the Bien Hoa - Vung Tau expressway construction site is still filled with the spirit of work. Hundreds of engineers and workers put aside the joy of family reunion, not taking a New Year's holiday to speed up the progress of the key expressway.

According to the reporter of Giao thong Newspaper, in the middle of the night, hundreds of people were still working hard despite the cold weather and outside, people and families were happily welcoming the new year.

Present at the expressway section through Phu My town, Ba Ria - Vung Tau province, the reporter noticed the bustling construction atmosphere with many engineers, workers, motorbikes and equipment working non-stop. Mr. Duong Hong Quan, Commander (Son Hai Group Co., Ltd.) said that the project component 3 has so far paved about 15km of asphalt. The weather is favorable so the contractor encouraged the brothers to work continuously to increase production.

“We are committed to opening the Bien Hoa - Vung Tau Expressway component 3 project to traffic on April 30, 2025, so we have to take advantage of every day, working through the New Year to complete each item in turn. Along with the asphalt paving, workers are also building longitudinal ditches, drainage systems, protective fences…”, Mr. Quan said.

On the construction site, there are many groups working throughout, some driving rollers, bulldozers, and others operating asphalt paving equipment. In another corner, a group of workers are using shovels to level rocks, adjusting to ensure quality and flatness during the paving process. Rollers are also running back and forth on the road surface to compact the newly paved asphalt layer.

Some workers are in charge of moving and adjusting the lighting to facilitate nighttime construction. At the same time, dump truck drivers are also constantly moving to deliver rocks to the construction site.

According to the Cai Mep - Thi Vai Regional Traffic Project Management Board, the output of the expressway section through Ba Ria - Vung Tau province has reached 51%. To ensure technical traffic opening in April 2025, we always maintain close connection between relevant parties. Any arising issues are promptly handled, and additional human resources and necessary equipment are provided to speed up the progress," the Board's leader shared.
