Try to ensure traffic safety during construction.

Contractors are urgently constructing the Cao Lanh - Lo Te route and traffic safety (TS) work is also focused on to ensure safety during the work process.

At the bidding package by Truong Thanh Investment - Construction - Trading Joint Stock Company, the reporter found that the safety barrier was implemented very seriously by the contractor. This contributed to making traffic participants feel secure through the road section under construction.

Mr. Truong Van Thang, technical officer, Truong Thanh Investment - Construction - Trade Joint Stock Company said that the contractor always pays attention to ensuring construction safety.

"The contractor always carefully fences off traffic on this road to ensure smooth and safe traffic," Mr. Thang added.

The contractor pays great attention to ensuring traffic safety at construction sites.

Mr. Vu Van Ven (45 years old, living in Can Tho city) said: "These past few days I have seen that the road is under construction, the contractor has barricades and there are traffic controllers. However, when passing through here, it is safer to drive slowly."

"The road is always a bit narrow during construction, so when coming here, everyone should pay attention to ensure safety. I see that in recent days, the contractor at the construction site has always done a good job of traffic safety," said Mr. Huynh Van Bu (54 years old, living in An Giang province).

Contractor patched the holes in the road surface.

According to Mr. Hoang, the Cao Lanh - Lo Te route was previously managed by Road Management Area IV (Vietnam Road Administration). Currently, this route is being upgraded so it has been assigned to contractors for construction. Therefore, all safety work is taken care of by Nghe An Construction Corporation.

The contractor is also contacting relevant units to cut grass and patch up damaged road surfaces to ensure safe traffic for people," Mr. Hoang informed.
