One lane of the Khanh Le Pass has been opened to traffic.

(NLĐO) - The Khanh Le Pass connecting Nha Trang and Da Lat on National Highway 27C has been reopened to traffic in one lane after being paralyzed for four days due to landslides.

On the morning of December 19th, Mr. Nguyen Phuong Nam, Deputy Director of Road Management Area 3 (Vietnam Road Administration), announced that the last traffic bottleneck at Km43+300 on Khanh Le Pass, National Highway 27C, in Son Thai commune, Khanh Vinh district, Khanh Hoa province, was officially reopened to traffic in one lane at 2:30 AM on December 19th.

According to Mr. Nam, the construction unit has been working continuously in 3 shifts and 4 teams, and after clearing the large rocks, one lane of the Khanh Le pass is now open to traffic. Currently, the unit has installed a warning system and assigned personnel to regulate traffic, allowing vehicles to pass one by one.

This landslide is the largest one, located right at the corner of the bend. There are many boulders blocking the road at this point, forcing the construction team to use explosives to break them up.

The most severe landslide occurred right at the sharp bend on the Khanh Le pass, part of National Highway 27C connecting Nha Trang (Khanh Hoa) and Da Lat ( Lam Dong ).

One lane opened at Khanh Le Pass.

The landslide on Khanh Le Pass on the morning of December 15th was a serious incident, with over 100,000 cubic meters of soil and rocks sliding down six points on the pass, causing traffic congestion.

Mr. Le Thuan Doan, Director of Khanh Hoa Road Management and Construction Joint Stock Company - the unit currently working to repair the landslide at Khanh Le Pass - said that since the landslide occurred, the company has deployed more than 30 vehicles and equipment, with two construction teams working from Nha Trang and from Lam Dong, employing dozens of workers 24/7.

The construction unit will continue to repair the damage to reopen both lanes to traffic as soon as possible.
