After nearly 7 years of construction, the project still has 5.8 km of unfinished sea dykes in all 4 communes of Quynh Bang, Quynh Luong, Quynh Minh and Quynh Nghia; on the route there are 9 drainage culverts, of which 8 drainage culverts have not been completed, water control gates have not been installed and 1 culvert has not been deployed.

After Quynh Luu district issued Official Dispatch No. 625/UBND.NN requesting the Department of Agriculture and Rural Development to speed up the construction progress of the sea dike, on November 10, the investor mobilized human resources and machinery to construct the remaining unfinished sections in Quynh Nghia commune.

Mr. To Duy Hien - Chairman of Quynh Nghia Commune People's Committee said that these days, the unit is focusing on leveling the roadbed and pouring concrete for a length of more than 1 km connecting the section from Rubystar Quynh Resort to Nui Rong. Accordingly, the roadbed is widened to 9 m and is more than 20 cm thick.

It is expected that around November 20, 2017, the sea dike route through the area with a total length of more than 2km will be completed, thereby contributing to promoting economic development, especially tourism and national security of Quynh Luu district.
