In addition, every year before the clearance campaign, localities use mobile information vehicles, grassroots loudspeakers, and hold neighborhood meetings along residential areas on both sides of the roads; organize commitment signings with agencies, organizations, and individuals. At the same time, propaganda work is maintained and carried out regularly, in conjunction with clearance and enforcement activities of functional forces.

Through propaganda work, many organizations and individuals have been mobilized to voluntarily dismantle constructions and architectural objects that violate traffic safety regulations. Localities in Vinh city; Cua Lo town, Thai Hoa town; Nghi Loc, Dien Chau, Tuong Duong, Tan Ky, Quy Hop districts have effectively implemented the mobilization work to voluntarily dismantle (over 70% of violations).

The whole province has organized route registration (or route sections) according to the model "self-governing road”; “civilized, exemplary” route...

Up to now, all localities have piloted routes following the model "Green - Clean - Beautiful", registering routes according to the self-management model, the model road section creates a change in urban civilization through residential areas. However, the maintenance and repair of routes registered as models in the management areas of districts, cities and towns have not received due attention. Many localities are attaching maintenance and repair work to new construction investment projects, and have not been able to replicate the model in the area.

In 4 years, the provincial budget supported departments, branches, units and localities to clear violations and prevent re-encroachment of traffic safety zones with more than 56.4 billion VND.

As of December 25, 2020, functional forces under the People's Committees of districts, cities and towns have recorded 12,876 violations, imposed fines and collected more than 8.8 billion VND to the State budget.
