(Baonghean.vn) - Muddy in the rain, dusty in the sun, that's what's happening on the inter-commune road full of potholes, passing through the two communes of Dien Ngoc and Dien Bich (Dien Chau).

Arriving at Dien Ngoc commune (Dien Chau) on the afternoon of November 8, hundreds of vehicles traveling back and forth encountered many difficulties due to the severely degraded road. According to our records, the road surface had sunk deeply, the asphalt was peeling off, creating puddles right in the middle of the road. This degraded section passed through Hong Yen hamlet (Dien Ngoc) and Hai Trung hamlet (Dien Bich).

According to local residents, this situation has been occurring for the past few years. Due to deterioration, on rainy days the road becomes a deep puddle; and on sunny days the dust is so thick that it makes it difficult for road users and poses a potential risk of accidents.

People still call this road "the road of suffering".

Ms. Hoang Thi Nhien in Dien Bich commune (Dien Chau) was upset: “This road has been severely damaged since about April 2019 until now. Every 3 a.m., there are many heavy trucks carrying rocks passing by. When it rains, the water stagnates into ponds, making it very difficult and dangerous for people to travel. Recently, there was a case of a motorcyclist falling because the wheel passed through a collapsed section, causing serious injury. I hope the local government will soon repair the road so that people can travel conveniently.”

According to research, in 2011, the People's Committee of Dien Chau district upgraded the road surface width to 7 meters, the asphalt roadbed to 5.5 meters from Dien Ngoc commune to Dien Kim. In 2015, a business in the district continued to invest over 10 billion VND to upgrade and expand the road nearly 1 km to serve both the project and the people in the area. The road was put into use in 2016 but up to now, many sections have seriously degraded.

This is an inter-commune route with a very high traffic density. Recently, the section passing through the commune has been seriously degraded. The cause comes from the discharge of wastewater from some seafood processing facilities into the road, which stagnates for a long time, combined with heavy trucks running through, causing damage to the road. During meetings with voters, the commune as well as the people have repeatedly complained to higher authorities, but to date, it has not been resolved.
