In which, Component Project 1 is invested by the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board and Component Project 2 is invested by Project Management Board 85 ( Ministry of Construction ).

Many contractors have not yet ensured committed progress.

In mid-July 2025, in a report sent to the Provincial People's Committee, the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board said that through an inspection of the actual construction progress, in the two construction packages of Component 1 Project, many contractors were assessed as not meeting the progress requirements to basically complete the project before December 19, 2025. The contractors that are behind schedule are "named" as: Truong Son Construction Corporation, Trung Nam Construction and Installation Joint Stock Company, Hoa Binh 479 Joint Stock Company, Hai Dang Joint Stock Company. In particular, Hai Dang Joint Stock Company was assessed as not meeting the financial capacity, ability to gather materials, vehicles, equipment, human resources, etc. to basically complete the project before December 19, 2025.

According to the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board, in terms of capacity, all contractors meet the bidding documents. At the same time, these contractors have committed to organizing construction with the spirit of "3 shifts, 4 teams". However, the implementation in practice is not synchronous and has not achieved clear results.

On July 11, during a field inspection of the construction progress of the Bien Hoa - Vung Tau Expressway Project, Comrade Tran Hong Minh, Member of the Party Central Committee, Minister of Construction, emphasized the consistent goal of completing the technical traffic opening of the entire main route of the Bien Hoa - Vung Tau Expressway, the section passing through Dong Nai province, before December 19, 2025.

In the Component 2 Project, in the document of the Department of Economics - Construction Investment Management (Ministry of Construction) sent by Deputy Director of the Department of Economics - Construction Investment Management Dinh Manh Duc to Project Management Board 85 on July 22, 2025, the unit pointed out that many contractors were slow in implementing the construction and did not meet the schedule. Accordingly, Vietnam Import-Export and Construction Joint Stock Company was still slow in filling the main roadbed and Song Vac bridge; Truong Son Construction Corporation was slow in filling the left branch bridge at Long Thanh intersection, filling the road at both ends of the left branch bridge and the N4, N6 branch bridges; Thai Yen Construction Investment Joint Stock Company was still slow in filling the Long Thanh intersection, filling the road at both ends of the right branch bridge, branches N3, N7, N12; Central Construction Group Joint Stock Company was still slow in filling the main roadbed, the road at both ends of Suoi Ca and Da Vang bridges and protecting the D900 water pipe.

Consider transferring volume when contractor fails to meet schedule

According to Mr. Nguyen Linh, Deputy Director of the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board, implementing the direction of the Prime Minister and the Provincial People's Committee, the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board is committed to completing the technical traffic of the main route of the Component 1 Project before December 19, 2025. Therefore, for contractors who are slow in construction, the unit has requested to focus on increasing human resources and equipment, and effectively implementing the construction in the spirit of "3 shifts, 4 teams". Contractors must proactively prepare enough construction materials, especially construction stones, to speed up the project construction.

Regarding the two contractors, Truong Son Construction Corporation and Hai Dang Joint Stock Company, on July 21, 2025, Provincial Party Committee member and Vice Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee Ho Van Ha signed a document of the Provincial People's Committee requesting these contractors to urgently mobilize all financial resources, human resources, vehicles and equipment, proactively source land for filling, gather materials, and implement construction with the spirit of "3 shifts, 4 teams", "working on Saturdays and Sundays" to make up for the delayed progress. The Provincial People's Committee requested the two contractors to re-establish a detailed construction schedule to complete technical traffic before December 19, 2025 and send it to the Provincial Construction Investment Project Management Board and the Department of Construction.
