Many transport projects are under construction in Hoa Binh province, connecting regions and industrial parks. They, therefore, have played a significant role in spurring local socio-economic development, and attracting investments in the province.

They include the Hoa Lac-Hoa Binh road, Hoa Binh 2 bridge, the road linking National Highway 6 and Chi Lang street in Hoa Binh city, projects upgrading provincial roads 435, 433, 438B, and 431, and the road running from Lac Son to Tan Lac districts.

Besides, the Department of Transport and the management board of transport projects are about pour investments in other major projects like the second phase of the Hoa Lac-Hoa Binh road, the road from Tran Hung Dao to Dan Chu street and National Highway 6, the Quang Tien-Thinh Minh road in Hoa Binh city, the road from National Highway 6 to National Highway 12B through Doc Lap and Du Sang communes, and the one linking Luong Son and Xuan Mai towns.

However, investors and the provincial People’s Committee reported that the implementation of certain projects has been hindered by obstacles in land clearance, resettlement and mountainous terrain.

Some others face difficulties in investment capital, mechanisms, policies and compensation, and have not received the support of local residents.

In his remarks, Liem said transport makes up 70 percent of projects in Hoa Binh province, and urged the sector to take more drastic actions in this regard.

Pointing out a large number of pending projects, mainly due to planning, the official said due attention should be paid to the planning work and reports on those projects need to be sent to local authorities as soon as possible.

He also urged the sector to better the road and waterway planning work, especially the planning of seaports.

Hoa Binh has more than 20 projects included the mid-term investment plan for 2021-2026, Liem said, adding that investors should promptly complete relevant procedures before May 31 in order to allocate the investment capital in a timely manner.

He also suggested the management board of transport projects consider building coordination mechanisms and set schedules for each project.

Meanwhile, the local transport sector was asked to provide consultations regarding the implementation of transport projects in line with the PM’s instructions./.
