The Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh Road project, carried out
in the public - private partnership (PPP) format, has total investment of over
9.38 trillion VND (390.8 million USD) and length of 23.04km, comprising 6.37km
in Hanoi and 16.67km in Hoa Binh province.
Of the two construction plans, the province
selected the first – building a six-lane road with a designed speed of 100km
per hour on the basis of the existing two-lane road, with the forecast traffic
volume until 2045 taken into account.
At the event, leaders of the provincial People’s
Committee and the consulting unit presented the scale and design of the
project, provided details about funding sources and the implementation plan,
and reported on the construction site’s status before the project kick off.
Secretary of the provincial Party Committee
Nguyen Phi Long said Hoa Lac - Hoa Binh Road is a critically important project
that will have great influence on socio-economic development in the province
and the northwestern region at large, and create an economic corridor for the
region. The provincial Party Committee’s Standing Board agreed to carry out
this project in the PPP format.
He demanded resources be mobilised to
accelerate, complete, and put the project into use early.
Meanwhile, the Hoa Binh - Moc Chau Expressway
project, of which the Km19+00 - Km53+00 section traverses Hoa Binh, is invested
with more than 9.8 trillion VND in total, of which over 8.2 trillion VND is
sourced from the central budget and 1.5 trillion VND from the provincial
budget. Preparations for construction are being made.
Regarding this project, Long asked the Party’s
civil affairs board of the provincial People’s Committee to direct the quick
settlement of difficulties in order to start the project in late 2023.
At the meeting, participants also looked into a
report on the allocation plan for the central budget’s funding for the
province’s socio-economic recovery and development programme, the allocation of

After the historic victory on April 30, 1975, which liberated the South and reunified the country, the whole Vietnam embarked on a new mission — promoting peace and reconstructing the nation with century-defining projects. On the fierce Da River, over 30,000 engineers, sappers, and construction workers battled against rocky mountains and raging floods to achieve a remarkable feat. The Hoa Binh Hydropower Plant, the largest of its kind in Southeast Asia at that time, officially began generating electricity, lighting up the North and ushering in a new era of industrialisation.
