To implement the construction of the overpass on National Highway 7C across the expressway, the construction unit designed a temporary road with a length of about 500 meters. However, according to observations, this temporary road has a very large number of vehicles participating in traffic, including many heavy trucks traveling on the narrow road. Photo: QA

There is no one on duty at the beginning of the route to direct traffic; the markers and signs are crooked and difficult to see. Photo: QA

Due to the large number of heavy trucks passing by, the road surface is eroded, with many potholes and bumps. The construction unit representative said: The unit has laid 3 layers of asphalt and continuously repaired it, however, with such a large number of vehicles, the peeling and erosion of the road is very difficult to handle thoroughly.

After that, the unit mobilized vehicles to sprinkle water and limit dust. In fact, when the functional forces inspected and supervised, the construction units only complied with traffic safety regulations when constructing the project. Photo: QA

At the intersection between the North-South Expressway and Dien Quang overpass in Dien Chau district, the road is also eroded and peeling. Despite spraying layers of water, there is still a lot of dust. Mr. Phan Huy Chuong, Deputy Head of the Traffic Safety Committee of Nghe An province, said: The unit will increase patrols and supervision and at the same time direct the Traffic Safety Committees of the districts to make records and strictly handle construction units that do not ensure traffic safety so that people can travel conveniently through intersections.
