Although approved in 2016, it was not until near the end of the term, 2019, that 10 billion VND was allocated, so construction had to begin in 2020 after additional capital was allocated.

After completing a length of about 350m, due to many arising problems and lack of funding, the project was stopped. By September 2022, the project was allocated over 80 billion VND, but due to compensation, site clearance and resettlement issues, only over 60 billion VND could be constructed, the remaining 18.4 billion VND had to be extended and carried forward to 2023.

Therefore, in 2023, along with the procedures to request an extension, Nghi Loc district is applying to connect this road axis withNational Highway 48E; submit additional planning for 19 land lots to resettle households and organize site clearance for the road section passing through the headquarters of the District Social Policy Bank.

Mr. Le Van Duc - Director of Nghi Loc Infrastructure Investment and Development Project Management Board said: Although the investment source is slow to arrange and the implementation process has some problems that have caused the construction to be prolonged, but basically up to this point, the main items such as sidewalks, drainage ditches, and trees have been basically completed and the road surface is being paved, the construction value is estimated at 87%.

After many missed deadlines due to problems, recently, the biggest bottleneck is the intersection between the axis road along the center of Quan Hanh town and the provincial road from National Highway 1A to Nghi Dien, which has been compensated and cleared. If the source extension procedure is approved, the project will be completed and put into use in 2023, thereby creating a new highlight for the town.
