(Baonghean) - National Highway 7A flood bypass project(from km147+850 to km149) invested by Khe Bo Hydropower Project Management Board, implemented since 2014, is still unfinished...
The National Highway 7A flood bypass project is invested by the Khe Bo Hydropower Plant Management Board, with a total investment of more than 12 billion VND, and has been under construction by the contractor since 2014. The reason for implementing this project is because the Khe Bo Hydropower Plant's water dam has put the National Highway 7A section passing through this area at risk of flooding.

Traveling on National Highway 7A, passing through Ban Lau, Thach Giam Commune, Tuong Duong District, from km147+850 to km149, anyone would be very upset because this road section is seriously degraded. Since the construction of this project, there have been many accidents here; some of which have resulted in fatalities. |

National Highway 7A from km147+850 to km149 is currently narrowed to only enough for one lane of motor vehicles. The road is small, with many puddles and mud due to rocks and soil flowing down from the high mountains; while the fence system and signs at both ends are not effective, there is a high risk of accidents. |

The road surface of National Highway 7A where the project is being implemented is flooded. |
 |
The cliff where the project is being implemented is an area where landslides often occur; not to mention that there are power lines running through the mountain, which also pose potential risks. |

Despite being "reminded" and urged frequently, the investor of this hydroelectric plant with a total investment of 2,500 billion VND still neglects the project; the contractor's machinery and materials are still "covered" next to the construction site. |
According to research, the management of National Highway 7A belongs to the Road Management Department II. Therefore, in the past, Tuong Duong district and related authorities have repeatedly sent documents requesting the Road Management Department II to urge the Khe Bo Hydropower Project Management Board to speed up the progress of completing the project, but in the end, the project is still unfinished...
