Unsightly images on the sidewalks in Vinh city
(Baonghean.vn) - Although Vinh city's sidewalks are being renovated and upgraded on some streets, many remaining streets are in a state of severe degradation. In addition, sidewalks are also encroached upon and violated by residents and some businesses.

| On many streets in Vinh, the sidewalks have been degraded due to long-term investment, with some places being high and some low, causing danger to pedestrians. |
 |
| Many sidewalks on streets such as Le Loi and Le Hong Phong are severely damaged, with nails even sticking out in some places. |
 |
| On Mai Hac De street, people even arbitrarily installed tap water and built drains right on the sidewalk. |
 |
| On the sidewalks for pedestrians, there are families who arbitrarily plant large trees right in front of their doors, blocking all the walking space and spoiling the urban beauty. Photo taken in front of house number 166 Mai Hac De, Vinh city. |

| Many sidewalk sections have been extended and the color of the sidewalk tiles changed by people. |
 |
| Some sections are even ditched for drainage. Photo taken on the sidewalk of Mai Hac De street. |

| On Le Loi Street, old tables and chairs were thrown out by people in broad daylight, not at the scheduled time for garbage collection and not collected in time. Photo taken at 3:00 p.m. on January 5, 2020. |

| The sidewalk of Le Nin Street was dug up a long time ago but has not been filled in time. In response to this situation, Mr. Le Sy Chien - Vice Chairman of Vinh City People's Committee said that the city will increase strict penalties for illegal dumping, and at the same time require wards and communes to regularly remind and take responsibility for encroachment and unsanitary conditions on the sidewalk. In the long term, the city will also calculate to have a source of funding to reinvest in sidewalks, ensuring a civilized and clean city. |
