Strengthening management of automobile transport activities

(Baonghean.vn) - The People's Committee of Nghe An province has just issued Directive No. 09/2015/CT-UBND dated March 7, 2015 on strengthening State management of automobile transportation activities in Nghe An province. The content of the directive is as follows:

In recent times, all levels, sectors and organizations have made great efforts in directing and organizing the implementation of the task of ensuring traffic order and safety, achieving many remarkable results, traffic accidents have been controlled and gradually reduced for many consecutive years. However, the traffic order and safety situation is still complicated, with a number of particularly serious traffic accidents involving homemade vehicles, vehicles that have expired their use period, vehicles not licensed to operate passenger transport (illegal vehicles)... in the province.

To overcome the above situation, enhance the effectiveness and efficiency of state management of means of transport in the province, and continue to effectively implement Decree 86/2014/ND-CP dated September 10, 2014 of the Government on business and conditions for business of transport by automobile, Plan No. 14/KH-UBATGTQG dated January 15, 2015 on implementing work to ensure traffic order and safety in 2015, the Provincial People's Committee requests:
