Vice Chairman Nguyễn Công Hoàng inspects the progress of two key transport projects
QUẢNG NGÃI – Vice Chairman of the Quảng Ngãi Provincial People’s Committee Nguyễn Công Hoàng on November 9 inspected the progress of two key transport projects and called for coordinated efforts to remove site clearance bottlenecks and accelerate construction.
The inspection covered the upgrading and improvement of National Highway 24B, section Km23–Km29, and the road linking Thạch Bích Bridge with Tịnh Phong. Representatives of relevant departments, agencies and local authorities accompanied the delegation.
The National Highway 24B project, which stretches more than 6.7km through Trương Quang Trọng Ward and Sơn Tịnh Commune, has completed site handover for more than 74 per cent of the route. Construction progress has reached nearly 14 per cent.
Vice Chairman Hoàng asked the project investor to work closely with relevant agencies and local authorities to resolve issues concerning land prices and compensation policies, and speed up compensation and site clearance in line with the approved schedule.
Local authorities were also urged to strengthen public communication and encourage residents to support the project.
He called for a suitable relocation site to be identified for a petrol station at Km23+400, ensuring that the business could continue operating.
Authorities were also asked to consider increasing the capacity and permitted extraction volumes of nearby construction material mines to secure adequate supplies for the project.
For sections where land has already been handed over, the investor and contractors were instructed to mobilise sufficient workers, machinery and equipment to accelerate construction while ensuring traffic safety for local residents.
The road linking Thạch Bích Bridge with Tịnh Phong is more than 6.1km long and runs through Trương Quang Trọng Ward and Thọ Phong Commune.
To date, 90.7 per cent of the required site has been handed over, while construction has reached more than 55 per cent.
However, some households have yet to hand over their land, and several compensation, support and resettlement plans remain unfinished, affecting the project’s progress.
Vice Chairman Hoàng gives directions to the project investor
Vice Chairman Hoàng directed the investor to coordinate with local authorities to promptly verify land origins, complete compensation and resettlement procedures, and step up public engagement to secure residents’ support.
He stressed that site clearance should be carried out in contiguous sections to enable contractors to organise construction in a coordinated manner.
Relevant agencies were asked to strengthen coordination and mobilise resources to speed up implementation, with the aim of opening the road to traffic at the earliest possible time.
