Transportation is a pressing issue that many people are concerned about. In a highly competitive environment, many bus companies have been established to meet people's travel choices, but there are still poor quality bus routes as reported by the press, which need stronger intervention from the authorities.

Regarding the management of buses and means of transport, Nghe An Department of Transport said: In the first 9 months of 2019, the Department issued and renewed 14,515 transport business badges of all kinds (up 2.36% over the same period in 2018); issued about 4,490 Vietnam - Laos inter-transportation licenses (up 2% over the same period in 2018).

Netizens also commented on the shipping prices of this carrier. Photo taken from the Internet.

Previously, Nghe An Department of Transport issued a document suspending bus route No. 05 (Vinh inner city - National Highway 1A - National Highway 7B - Yen Thanh town). The temporary suspension period is from September 29 to October 5, 2019 (when the unit finishes fixing the violation). The reason for the temporary suspension of the Dong Bac bus company to Yen Thanh is that recently, the company has had 16 buses running this route, most of which have deteriorated.

The Department of Transport has asked this bus company to replace 5 buses, the remaining buses must be repaired and maintained to ensure traffic safety. Not to mention that the Dong Bac bus company running the Vinh City - Yen Thanh route recently also violated the law of stopping and picking up passengers beyond the prescribed time.
