Nearly 6 billion VND to upgrade muddy roads in Tan Ky district

Recently, people in Tan Ky district have complained about the serious deterioration of Route 534D, the section from Nghia Hanh commune and Phu Son commune, affecting people's lives. People said that this road is dusty when it is sunny, and muddy when it rains, making it impossible for all vehicles to pass.

According to the reporter, this degraded road section is often traversed by heavy trucks, making the damage even worse. Faced with this situation, the People's Committee of Tan Ky district promptly mobilized capital to upgrade this road section.

According to the Project Management BoardTan Ky districtsaid, this road section is 1.6 km long, in Nghia Hanh commune. To facilitate people's travel, Tan Ky district People's Committee has used nearly 6 billion VND from the provincial and district budgets to invest in upgrading this road section to the standard of grade VI mountainous road, with asphalt covering a 3.5m wide road surface.

Currently, taking advantage of favorable weather, the district is directing units to speed up the road upgrade progress, especially as the rainy and stormy season is approaching. It is expected that by December 2022, the construction unit will complete the upgrade of this road section, creating convenience for people in the area to travel and develop the economy and society.

Mr. Pham Hong Son - Vice Chairman of Tan Ky District People's Committee said that although the district and all levels and sectors have recently paid attention to investing in upgrading some key roads, there are still many degraded roads in the district. The locality's characteristics are favorable conditions for developing raw material areas of sugarcane, acacia, cassava... therefore, degraded roads not only make people's travel difficult, but also affect the exploitation and consumption of raw materials./.
