Construction materials litter the sidewalks and streets of Vinh.
(Baonghean.vn) - Bricks, stones, sand and gravel are often left blocking the roadway and sidewalks, taking up pedestrian walkways. This is a fairly common situation on Vinh City's streets at this time.

| There are currently many construction projects in Vinh City, most of which use the sidewalk as a place to store construction materials and waste. This not only causes traffic safety problems, but also affects pedestrians and urban aesthetics.

| On Cao Xuan Duc Street, Ben Thuy Ward, construction materials even occupied 2/3 of the roadway, leaving vehicles with only a space in the middle to move on the morning of April 20. Photo: PV |

| On Truong Van Linh Street, many households also occupied the entire sidewalk to store construction materials; it is worth mentioning that the violations are located near the People's Committee of Nghi Phu Commune. Photo: PV |

| In the context of limited land and difficult construction, the gathering of materials on the sidewalk is inevitable, but the project owners must be conscious of keeping the area around the project neat and clean. According to the reporter's investigation, the People's Committees of all wards are currently organizing the signing of commitments for all households not to gather construction materials in the wrong place. If there is a need, a document must be sent to the People's Committee of the ward requesting the gathering of construction materials, but it must not be left for more than 24 hours and a part of the sidewalk must be given to pedestrians... However, in reality, many households have not complied with their commitments, gathering beyond the deadline or overflowing the sidewalk is still common. Photo: PV |

| Besides causing loss of urban aesthetics and affecting traffic, leaving construction materials piled up on sidewalks and roadsides is also the cause of local flooding because when it rains, materials such as sand and gravel flow down the drains, causing congestion and flooding.

| According to Decree 100/2019 on Administrative Penalties in the Road and Railway Sector, the act of illegally dumping or leaving materials and waste in violation of regulations will be fined from VND 4,000,000 to VND 6,000,000 for individuals, from VND 8,000,000 to VND 12,000,000 for organizations. However, the issue of leaving construction materials on the roads in Vinh City has not been thoroughly handled. Photo: PV |
