09-01-2013
The HCMC-Long Thanh-Dau Giay project has been 60% complete in the main section from HCMC to Long Thanh. The contractor now is accelerating progress of construction on the soft-ground area. The project owner Vietnam Expressway Corporation (VEC) plans to continue construction during the week-long Lunar New Year holiday to ensure the scheme will be complete on schedule.
Meanwhile, site-clearance problems of the Noi Bai-Lao Cai Expressway project have already been removed. In the middle of last month, the project had a few sections covered with asphalt and the developer VEC at the end of last month connected both ends of the Lo River Bridge project, one of the two longest bridges on this expressway.
The transport ministry expects to have the project completed at the end of this year.
Another expressway project connecting Hanoi and Thai Nguyen has had its construction pace speeded up since 24 unqualified contractors were replaced. This project is now some 50% complete and it can be accomplished ahead of schedule.
Besides the aforesaid projects, a number of other expressway projects invested by VEC will get off the ground within this year such as the Danang-Quang Ngai Expressway project, the Ben Luc-Long Thanh project and the La Son-Tuy Loan.
Also, the Dau Giay-Phan Thiet Expressway scheme might be kicked off soon under the format of public-private partnership if the project owner Bitexco Group finishes investment procedures on time.
