On the side of Road Management Area IV, about 5,000 stone cages are provided to handle negative slopes, repair damage, and ensure safe and smooth traffic in the context of prolonged heavy rain.

Lam Dong province will arrange personnel, transportation and implement construction at key locations.

According to local reports, continuous heavy rains in recent days have caused a series of landslides, subsidence, and road breaks on many national highways through Lam Dong province. Major traffic routes such as National Highway 20, National Highway 28, and National Highway 27 have all recorded severe damage, posing potential traffic safety risks and isolating many areas.

Particularly on National Highway 27C in Khanh Hoa and Lam Dong provinces, there are still 3 traffic jams. Specifically, in the Khanh Le Pass area (National Highway 27C), landslides occurred, completely blocking many locations such as Km43+500, Km47+000, Km65 - Km71... causing traffic jams and vehicles are currently unable to move through. Lam Dong and Khanh Hoa provinces have banned vehicles from traveling on National Highway 27C (Khanh Le Pass) from November 17, 2025.

Traffic diversion plan for vehicles traveling from Nha Trang to Da Lat, from Khanh Hoa follow National Highway 1 to Km1556+00, turn right onto National Highway 27 to Km174+00, turn onto Lien Khuong - Prenn Expressway to Da Lat.
