Lien Chieu port project faces difficulties due to scarce stone supply

Due to the scarcity of stone supply, the Lien Chieu port construction project is facing difficulties in implementation, affecting the construction progress.

The Management Board of Priority Infrastructure Investment Projects in Da Nang said that the construction investment project of Lien Chieu Port has so far achieved about VND530 billion/VND2,630 billion; equivalent to 20.2% of the total volume.

According to the Management Board, the source of all kinds of boulders in Da Nang city is currently scarce because the mines have not increased their mining capacity; especially the source of 1-3 tons of stones. This reality affects the progress of construction and protection of the roadbed, especially during the rainy and stormy season.

It is known that on October 12, 2023, in Official Dispatch No. 5577/UBND-DTDT on strengthening state management of minerals and ensuring construction material sources in the city, the Chairman of Da Nang City gave instructions to agree in principle with the proposal of the Department of Natural Resources and Environment to allow mineral mines with remaining reserves to increase their mining capacity in accordance with current regulations to ensure the city's needs.
