Speaking at the technical opening ceremony of Dung bridge, on behalf of the provincial leaders, comrade Nguyen Xuan Duong highly appreciated the efforts of the construction units to ensure the technical opening of Dung bridge and the first phase of the road on schedule, ensuring technical and quality standards. The Chairman of the Provincial People's Committee also affirmed that the Dung bridge project and the road from the center of Thanh Chuong district to the Ban Ve hydropower resettlement area is an important project, contributing to connecting the district center with Ho Chi Minh road, to Thanh Thuy border gate to Laos in the most convenient and shortest way, thereby promoting the socio-economic development of Thanh Chuong district in general and the communes through which the road passes, especially creating comprehensive development opportunities for the two resettlement communes of Thanh Son and Ngoc Lam. Therefore, it is recommended that construction units continue to complete the remaining items in phase I, ensuring quality and aesthetics to put the project into operation to meet the requirements of socio-economic development, national defense and security of Thanh Chuong district and the needs of trade and travel of people in the region. Thanh Chuong district should strengthen propaganda and mobilization work so that people can raise awareness of protecting the structure of the project, the system of trees, traffic signs, not encroaching on the roadside, and building a road that is always safe - green - clean - beautiful.
