This is an important milestone in achieving the goal of putting 3,000 km of expressway into operation. Time is running out, just over a month left, so this is an extremely important stage to accelerate and break through in implementing key projects and works. This momentum is taking place vigorously across the country.

Mr. Nguyen Manh Hai - Director of the Project Management Board of the Joint Contractor Corporation 36 - Newtatco - VNCC said: "Although the weather at the end of the year was very unfavorable, the contractor was highly focused. We still maintained 5 construction sites, working through noon. At noon, workers took a break at the construction site so that in the early afternoon they could start working again at 1 o'clock".

At the air traffic control tower area, serving runways 1-3 of phase 1 of Long Thanh International Airport, at present, all imported equipment has arrived and is basically being installed.

Currently, the construction works to ensure flight operations are being rushed. Up to now, the construction work has been completed. The finishing and equipment installation items are also in the final stages, ready for the first technical flight on December 19.

Mr. Hoang Manh Tuan - Member of the Board of Members, Vietnam Air Traffic Management Corporation said: "We are closely coordinating with the contractor to install, complete the application for a license from the Civil Aviation Authority of Vietnam, prepare a very detailed plan to serve the flight plan, technical inspection on December 15 and fly technical flights on December 19 according to the general plan of the Government, as well as the Ministry of Construction ".

Currently, 3/15 packages have been completed, many items have reached 90% of the volume. Many packages have shortened the progress by 3 to 5 months, determined to complete the technical milestones before December 19.
