(Baonghean.vn) - 68 households in Quynh Thien ward (Hoang Mai town) built houses and architectural works within the protection area of information works, signals, and railway power supply systems. The incident has been going on for many years but there has been no satisfactory solution.

| For many years now, dozens of households in blocks 7, 8, and 10 (Quynh Thien ward, Hoang Mai town) have been unable to build or renovate their houses even though they have been granted land use rights. The reason is that the railway information, signal and power supply lines managed by Vinh Railway Signal and Information Joint Stock Company, the section passing through Hoang Mai town, is located across the land plot.

| In 2015, National Highway 1A was upgraded and expanded, the road surface was raised 1m higher than the old level. Many households were forced to raise their house level or build new houses, leading to a shortening of the distance from the construction site to the information lines, signals and railway power supply system.

| Therefore, there are sections where the railway communication lines, signals and power supply systems are located under the eaves of houses. People have to use supporting poles to prevent the lines from collapsing. In many places, people even build houses over and over the communication lines, making communication ineffective and seriously affecting the operation of the railway signal system. Photo: Nhat Lan |

| Like Mr. Ho Hong Linh's family, when building a factory to sell construction materials, they encountered this power line. With no other choice, his family accepted to let this power line go through the factory. Photo: Pham Bang |

| The case of Mr. Ho Sy The's family is even more difficult. This plot of land belonged to Mrs. Tran Thi Hien (Mr. The's mother) before 1980. When Mr. The and his wife and children moved here to live and opened a car tire repair shop, they saw a power line lying across the plot of land. Currently, Mr. The wants to build a house, partly for business and partly for the living needs of 4 people in the family, but because of this power line, he has not been able to do so. "Now, if you want to build a house, you have to apply for a permit, but because of this railway signal line, I don't know what to do. If according to the regulations, from the center of the power line to each side is 3.5m to be able to build a house, my plot of land will be cut into small pieces, not enough area to build a house anymore," said Mr. The.

| Instead of waiting for a building permit like The's family, Dao Hoa Mai's family still built a house to live in. But because of the power line, his house was divided in half, making it ugly. When the authorities and local authorities discovered that Mai was building a house, they came to make a record but in the end they still could not impose a fine. Photo: Pham Bang |

| The most unfortunate case is that of Mrs. Nguyen Thi Dao's family. According to Mrs. Dao, her family's land was built before 1980, and when they lived there, they saw poles and power lines running through the plot of land. After that, the government issued a land use right certificate to the family, covering the poles and power lines. Therefore, for many years, her family has not been able to renovate or rebuild the house. "I'm always worried that if there is lightning, it will strike the power lines and poles, and the lives of the people in my family will be lost. I just hope that the government will soon find a way to help my family, move the poles and power lines out of the plot of land so that my family can have the conditions to build a new house," Mrs. Dao said.

| The power lines are located precariously close to houses. Many other families had to do everything they could to avoid the power lines when constructing their buildings. Photo: Pham Bang |

| People are upset because this power line has been in existence since 1976 but has not been renovated since then, so the pole and wire system has deteriorated. Not only that, many units and organizations have also pulled fiber optic cables on this line, causing a messy situation. Therefore, on June 22, 2017, when Thanh Hoa Information Technology Branch organized a construction team to pull fiber optic cables on this line, people came out to protest, determined not to let the unit pull it through their family's land.

| According to Mr. Nguyen Ba Binh - Vice Chairman of Quynh Thien Ward People's Committee (Hoang Mai Town), the above situation has lasted for many years, affecting the information activities of Vinh Railway Signal Information Company as well as the daily life and housing construction of the people. In cases of house construction within the corridor of the power line, the ward has coordinated with the company to make a record, but the handling has encountered many difficulties because people mainly build on residential land. Hoang Mai Town People's Committee has sent a document requesting Vietnam Railway Corporation and Vinh Railway Signal Information Joint Stock Company to have a plan to relocate or raise the above power line.
