Local efforts

Van Ly Bridge and its approach roads started construction on September 16, 2023, through Dien Ban town and Dai Loc district. The project has a total length of 7.78km; including Van Ly Bridge and 2 approach roads.

Branch road N1 is 3.65km long with the starting point at the end of DT610B route (Dien Quang commune, Dien Ban), crossing Thu Bon river to the end point at the intersection between DT609B and DT609C (New Quang Hue intersection, Dai Hoa commune, Dai Loc).

Belonging to Dien Hong commune, branch N2 starts from the intersection with branch N1 to the intersection between DT609 and DT605 (Cam Ly intersection, Dien Ban) with a length of 4.13km.

The road through Dai Hoa commune is about 2.8km long (agricultural land occupies 2.6km). The road in Dien Ban includes 2 communes Dien Quang and Dien Hong. Of which, the road through Dien Quang commune has a clearance area of ​​about 0.34km, mainly agricultural land; the road through Dien Hong commune is about 4.43km long.

The Quang Nam Province Traffic Construction Investment Project Management Board (investor) said that the road surface leading to Dien Quang commune has been basically handed over; and the operator of Tu Phu Pumping Station is completing procedures to relocate and build at a new location.

In addition, Dien Ban has handed over a section of agricultural land through Dien Hong commune, about 1.1km long. The remaining 2km section has just been approved by the town for compensation and support for agricultural land. The investor has transferred money to prepare for payment to households.

With the GPMB area affected by a part of residential land and the affected households being completely cleared, the locality is counting and has not yet implemented the examination of land origin. To resettle households whose housing is affected, the town will build a new residential area Thanh An.

The design consultant set up the project but the total investment value exceeded the approved investment policy (increased by about 30%), so it was necessary to adjust the investment policy or invest in different phases. Therefore, the site clearance work could not be implemented because there were no approved design documents.

In Dai Hoa commune, Dai Loc district, a compensation plan and support for agricultural land with a handover length of about 1.85km has been approved. The cross-section of the roadbed still has 2 tombs located in the ancient tomb of the Bui family. The family has agreed to relocate the tomb. However, in addition to compensation and support, this family requested financial support for new construction and requested to arrange the land adjacent to the old place (located on the land previously built by ancestors close to the old tomb).

There are still many problems

Engineer Dao Hong Ngoc - technical officer of Dat Phuong Group Joint Stock Company said that Van Ly bridge is about to be completed. In contrast, the construction value of the approach road alone (including the viaduct) accounts for more than 267 billion VND, but up to now, it has only reached more than 0.5 billion VND from the construction of the approach road in Dien Quang commune.

Dai Loc District has cleared about 1.85km of land, but many locations are still "leopard skin". Not to mention, the end of the route has not been handed over, while the cement concrete road in the area is small and narrow, with no transport route to the construction site.

The investor said that the households in Dai Hoa commune that were cleared are being examined for land origin, but there are still land legal issues. The resettlement area in Dai Hoa commune has not yet been built.

The locality also has to adjust the survey map to serve the site clearance work because a part of the land previously managed by Dai An commune is stuck. In Dien Hong commune, although the town has handed over 1.1km, because the final section of the route (the intersection of DT609 and DT605) has not been cleared, the contractor has no access to the project.

If the first section of the route is handed over early, the investor will consider continuing to borrow route DH11.DB to transport materials and bring machinery into the construction site.

The project's chief supervisor, engineer Bui Huy Phu - an officer of the Road Engineering Center 3, shared that the project's critical points are the 3 overpasses located on the road leading through Dien Hong commune. Despite petitions and proposals over the past year, the bottleneck of the agricultural land area has not been cleared yet.

Although the three bridges mentioned above are small, the construction time is much longer than digging and filling the roadbed. Therefore, the contractor continues to hope that the locality will pay attention and give priority to site clearance for the construction of the three overpasses mentioned above.

Recently, the investor requested the Party Committee and authorities of Dien Ban town and Dai Loc district to continue to direct resolutely and complete the site clearance work within the time frame as directed by the provincial leaders.

Inspecting the project on February 7, 2025, Comrade Luong Nguyen Minh Triet - Alternate member of the Party Central Committee, Secretary of the Provincial Party Committee requested the Standing Committees of the City Party Committee, District Party Committees of the two localities, together with the heads of Party committees and authorities of the communes, to focus on leadership, direction, and strive with the highest determination; closely follow the detailed plan for the progress of site clearance and handover so that the investor can accelerate the construction progress.

Mobilize people to agree to receive compensation and support funds. In cases where the policies have been fully applied according to regulations, and there have been many mobilizations and dialogues but people are still reluctant to hand over the site, then resolutely protect the construction, or enforce (if necessary).
