Le Hong Son Street in Vinh Tan Ward, Vinh City is a "hot spot" for the encroachment of roadsides and sidewalks for business and trading.
Clip: PVLe Hong Son Street is about 1km long, from the intersection with Le Huan Street to the intersection with Ho Xuan Huong Street. On this street, every afternoon, there is often a situation where small traders spill out onto the street, displaying their goods for sale.

Photo: reporterLe Hong Son Street is narrow but is often congested due to being occupied. Bicycles and motorbikes weave in and out of each other, while cars are forced to find other routes and cannot pass through.

Photo: PVThe situation of Le Hong Son street being turned into a market not only causes traffic jams, affects people's lives but also spoils the city's urban beauty and pollutes the environment. Every time the market is over, garbage and wastewater overflow onto the street, giving off a foul smell. Photo: PVThe items for sale are very diverse, mainly meat, fish, vegetables, fruits... Photo: PVAccording to the investigation, the violators were mainly small traders in the markets who, after market hours, went out to the street to continue selling. In addition, many people living in this area also took the opportunity to bring their goods out to sell.
