On March 27, Lao Dong Newspaper reporters were present at the Ham Nghi extended road project, recording that site clearance work of the project is still facing obstacles with many houses with a length of about 1 km in Ha Huy Tap ward.
Mr. Nguyen Chi Cong - Head of the Land Price and Compensation Department of the Ha Tinh Provincial Land Fund Development Center said that the site clearance work of the Ham Nghi extended road project has basically been resolved. Many households have received resettlement land a few weeks ago and have now started to deploy housing construction.
According to Mr. Cong, there are still obstacles to be resolved with 11 households. Among them, 9 households have completed the compensation plan, and people have agreed.
For the remaining 2 households, Mr. Truong Quang Tuong's household (in Bac Thuong residential group, Ha Huy Tap ward) has not yet determined the land use boundaries because the area of this household is related to previous projects, so it is continuing to be removed. Another household is waiting to determine whether the scope of impact is related to another project or not.
Mr. Cong also said that, according to the plan, on Monday next week (March 30, 2026), a part of the site will be handed over to households who only have a part of garden land affected and households without houses affected. By May 2026, the second phase of site handover will be for households with affected houses who must be resettled.
After handing over the first phase site, the construction unit will deploy rolling construction so that after receiving the second phase site, the remaining part will be constructed in order to soon complete the project and clear the entire route," Mr. Cong shared.
