Chairman of Thai Nguyen Provincial People's Committee requested the Management Board of Investment Projects for Construction of Transport and Agricultural Works of the province to urgently barricade the entire area that does not meet the conditions for exploitation on the regional liaison road, connecting Thai Nguyen - Bac Ninh - Phu Tho provinces.
Close spontaneous openings, strictly control people and vehicles entering and leaving the construction site, complete the signal system, signs and safety items before putting the project into operation in accordance with the law.
Thai Nguyen Provincial People's Committee assigned the Department of Construction to preside over and coordinate with relevant agencies and units to organize a comprehensive inspection of the compliance with regulations on construction quality management and construction conditions.
At the same time, clearly define the responsibilities of the investor, construction unit, supervision consultant and related organizations to advise competent authorities to consider and handle according to regulations.
Phuc Thuan, Van Xuan wards and Quan Chu, Thanh Cong communes need to promote propaganda and control people's arbitrary entry into construction areas; manage spontaneous walkways and strictly handle violations.
The above direction was issued after the Thai Nguyen Provincial Police had a document sent to the Thai Nguyen Provincial People's Committee stating that from June 21 - 28, 2 serious traffic accidents occurred in succession, killing 2 people and injuring 4 others.
Thai Nguyen Provincial Police said that the project has not organized barriers to separate the construction area from the traffic area, the system of traffic signs, road markings, markers, warning lights and reflector equipment have not been installed synchronously.
Some locations connected to people's roads have not been reasonably organized, and control forces have not been deployed in areas at high risk of traffic conflicts. People's awareness of complying with regulations is not high, which is a direct cause of traffic accidents.
The regional liaison road project connecting Thai Nguyen - Bac Ninh - Phu Tho provinces was started in May 2022 with a total length of more than 42.5km, total investment of more than 4,200 billion VND. The road is expected to be officially put into operation and use from August 2026.
