After Nghe An Newspaper reported that many people were traveling in the wrong direction on the extended N5 route, the Department of Transport installed signs to guide people in the right direction.

Recently, many Nghe An residents traveling on the N5 extended road towards Tan Ky district have mistakenly taken the wrong route to Do Luong Cement Factory because this road has a branch, dividing into two roads of the same level, which can easily cause confusion, especially for first-time travelers.

In an exchange with Nghe An Newspaper reporters, the Department of Transport said that after Nghe An Newspaper reported on the situation of many people going the wrong way when traveling on the extended N5 route, the unit directed the forces to install 3 signs in 3 directions, including: 2 signs from National Highway 7A to Ho Chi Minh Road (Tan Ky) and vice versa, 1 sign from Do Luong Cement Factory. This will help people travel in the right direction.

According to the Nghe An Department of Transport, the signs are part of the construction package of the N5 extended road. Currently, the project has not been handed over, so the unit has not installed them yet. However, the road has been basically completed, has a large traffic volume every day and there have been cases of people taking the wrong way. Therefore, it is necessary to speed up the installation of signs for people to travel safely and conveniently. The N5 extended road is expected to be completed and handed over by the end of 2024.

It is known that the N5 extended road project connecting Hoa Son commune, Do Luong district to Ho Chi Minh - Tan Ky road has a length of 21 km. Of which, it passes through the communes of Hoa Son, Thinh Son, Bai Son, Giang Son Dong in Do Luong district (10.162 km); Minh Thanh, Thinh Thanh communes in Yen Thanh district (9.768 km); Ky Tan commune (1.43 km) in Tan Ky district. The N5 extended road is designed at a level III delta scale, with a road surface of 12 m wide, with a total investment of nearly 740 billion VND.

When the entire N5 route is opened to traffic, it will become the main axis connecting districts in the Western Nghe An economic zone such as Tan Ky, Anh Son, Con Cuong, Ky Son... with the Southeast Economic Zone to Cua Lo International Port Cluster, thereby improving the capacity of freight and trade transportation, creating an important basis for attracting investment projects in economic zones in the Southeast of Nghe An province; contributing to promoting socio-economic development, reviving the life of the Western Nghe An region.
