Nearly 300 billion VND infrastructure project in Quang Binh awaits instructions

The Road and Embankment Project connecting Nhat Le 2 Bridge to the Storm Shelter and Fisheries Logistics Area (South of Nhat Le 3 Bridge) in Dong Hoi City was approved by the People's Committee of Quang Binh Province for its feasibility study report in Decision No. 2899/QD-UBND dated October 13, 2023 and assigned the Department of Transport of Quang Binh Province as the investor. The project has a total investment of VND 298 billion.

Quang Binh Department of Transport said that the total length of the project is 2.92 km, started on May 10, 2024 and is expected to be completed in early 2026 (671 days of construction). However, the project is facing many difficulties in handing over the clean site to the contractor.

Mr. Tran Thanh Phong, Executive Director of projects in Quang Binh under Son Hai Group, the contractor of the construction package, said that up to now, the construction unit has only been assigned 400 m of clean land for the last section of the project, from the south of Nhat Le 3 bridge to the anchorage area for boats to avoid storms and fishing logistics. The main section from Nhat Le 2 bridge to Nhat Le 3 bridge has not yet been allocated land.

“If the site is handed over in a synchronous manner, the construction will be very convenient. However, waiting for the entire handover will not be enough to keep up with the schedule, so we should focus on the construction of each section that is handed over,” said Mr. Phong.

Quang Binh Department of Transport said that in 2024, the capital allocated for the Project is 238 billion VND. As of September 24, the total capital disbursed for the Project is 27.8 billion VND (reaching a rate of 11.7%). Regarding the implementation of the construction package, worth 198.98 billion VND, the construction unit has only implemented the volume value of 20 billion VND (about 10%).

It is known that to implement the Project, 79 households, individuals and organizations are affected. Currently, the Department of Natural Resources and Environment has signed and approved the land measurement records for 42 households and one organization. At the same time, the People's Committee of Dong Hoi City has issued the first land recovery notice to 11 households and one organization; the remaining 24 households, individuals and one other organization are completing the dossier procedures to submit to the People's Committee of Dong Hoi City to issue the second land recovery notice. The remaining 37 households and individuals have not yet signed the land measurement records.

Mr. Doan Cong Huu, Deputy Director of the Center for Information Technology on Natural Resources and Environment (under the Department of Natural Resources and Environment of Quang Binh), the unit performing the cadastral measurement and correction work at the Project, said that the cadastral measurement and correction products have been completed and handed over to the investor in two phases and are continuing to complete the third phase. "Because some land areas within the project's site clearance area are having to determine their origin and disputes, in the process of completing the cadastral measurement and correction dossier in the third phase, the unit encountered some difficulties that need support from the People's Committee of Bao Ninh commune to resolve," said Mr. Huu.

According to the People's Committee of Dong Hoi City, the current difficulty in site clearance is having to deal with cases of tomb relocation; cases with complicated and unclear land origins; disputed land; households that do not agree with the compensation plan...

Specifically, there are currently 7 households waiting for the People's Committee of Bao Ninh commune to confirm the origin of the land, the time of use and the minutes of the household meeting to assign the heirs of the land property, 9 households are disputing over the right to use the land, 10 households do not agree to sign the measurement records, 5 households are disputing the land for road construction with the People's Committee of the commune. That does not include 13 huts, 7 piers within the scope of the Project, causing the construction site to be divided and interrupted.

Mr. Hoang Ngoc Dan, Chairman of Dong Hoi City People's Committee, said that the plan for compensation and support for site clearance at the Project is also being temporarily suspended due to waiting for the People's Committee of Quang Binh province to issue regulations on compensation, support and resettlement policies when the State reclaims land in Quang Binh province according to the 2024 Land Law.

Proposal for Central Government to support 2,619 billion VND to invest in Ho Chi Minh City - Tien Giang traffic axis

The Ho Chi Minh City Department of Transport has just sent document No. 13690/SGTVT-KH to the Ministry of Transport for comments on the investment plan for the Ho Chi Minh City - Long An - Tien Giang urban traffic axis (National Highway 50 B).

Map of urban traffic route Ho Chi Minh City - Long An - Tien Giang.

After research, the traffic management agency of Ho Chi Minh City said that National Highway 50B is currently shown in the Project to adjust the general planning of Ho Chi Minh City to 2040, with a vision to 2060, with a planned cross-section of 40 m.

However, the Project has not been shown in the Ho Chi Minh City Transport Development Plan and related zoning plans in Nha Be and Binh Chanh districts.

Therefore, after the Prime Minister approves the Project to adjust the general planning of Ho Chi Minh City to 2040, with a vision to 2060, the City will update it into related planning.

Regarding the project's investment capital, the Ho Chi Minh City People's Committee has developed a medium-term public investment plan for the 2026-2030 period and reported to the City People's Council, in which it proposed that the Central Government support 50% (VND 2,619 billion/total estimated investment of VND 5,238 billion) for the section passing through the City.

Therefore, the HCM City Department of Transport proposed that the Ministry of Transport study and propose support from the central budget to invest in the section passing through the city.

Regarding the investment plan, in the draft investment plan of the Project, the Ministry of Transport proposed that the Prime Minister assign localities to study the detailed investment plan and implement investment in the sections going around the area, but has not proposed a specific investment plan.

Therefore, the Ho Chi Minh City Department of Transport recommends that the Ministry of Transport propose a specific investment plan for the entire route to ensure consistency during investment and operation.

The urban traffic axis of Ho Chi Minh City – Long An – Tien Giang (National Highway 50B) has a total length of 55 km. Of which, the section passing through Ho Chi Minh City is 5.8 km long; the section passing through Long An is 35.6 km long; the section passing through Tien Giang is 14 km long.

The preliminary total investment for the entire route is 25,203 billion VND, currently the investment capital source has been identified at 7,837 billion VND, and the remaining 17,365 billion VND is currently being balanced from many different capital sources.

This is a traffic axis connecting Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta region, playing an important role in enhancing inter-regional traffic connections, reducing the load on National Highway 50, and promoting the development of urban areas and industrial parks and clusters along the route.

At the same time, it solves the circulation of goods, reduces logistics costs, and contributes to the socio-economic development of Ho Chi Minh City and the Mekong Delta. Therefore, investing in this route is very necessary.

However, since the toll collection was stopped, it has been more than 1 year and 8 months, but the Vietnam Road Administration has been very slow in implementing the project and has not yet had any results in resolving the project's problems.
