Nguoc Mountain is located in Thanh Ngoc and Ngoc Son communes, Thanh Chuong district. This area has a rugged terrain, with high mountains on one side and deep rivers on the other. In recent years, serious landslides have occurred, threatening traffic safety.

Faced with this situation, the Vietnam Road Administration has directed the implementation of the Project "Handling landslides on the KM39+200 - KM39+750 section of National Highway 46B" invested by the Road Administration Department II. The project focuses on thoroughly handling landslides and rockfalls on Nguoc Mountain. The slopes are cut in layers, creating 8-12m high slopes with 5-6 slopes depending on the terrain.
