Can Tho - Despite unfavorable weather, more than 2,100 employees at the Can Tho - Ca Mau expressway construction site are still working hard.
At this time, the Can Tho - Ca Mau expressway under the North - South expressway project is in the final stage. Despite the erratic sunny and rainy weather, workers and engineers are still sticking to the construction site to ensure the project is completed by the end of 2025.Working on technical fabric paving, Ms. Huynh Ngoc Mai said that everyone works without counting days off, except when the machinery is broken, and takes advantage of every hour and every minute to ensure work progress. During the rainy season, it is much more difficult, the construction site is muddy, and the transportation and use of machinery is also difficult.Mr. Bui Thanh Tung - an engineer at Truong Son Construction Corporation - said that during this time, it rained almost every day, but the unit still constructed continuously. According to Mr. Tung, the unit has proactively developed a plan to deploy work suitable for workers, and at the same time, took advantage of the rainy weather to roll the roadbed to achieve efficiency.Recorded on sunny days, many engineers and workers work hard on the asphalt. And the asphalt paving stage has to be done continuously, if the machine is stopped to eat and then rebooted, it will take a long time, so they often divide into groups and exchange after eating.At around 12 noon, some engineers and workers took a break to start lunch at the construction site, while others continued working. As a highway construction worker, Mr. Nguyen Van Toan said that eating rice like that is regular and familiar.A representative of the Truong Son Executive Board informed that the rainy weather has affected some items, but the unit has proactively adjusted the floor treatment solution to vacuum pumps (VCM) to shorten the time.In addition, the construction of the route and traffic safety system is also being implemented, including the production and installation of fences, median strips, and parallel corrugated iron. In addition, contractors continuously work overtime and increase shifts to compensate for the progress.According to the My Thuan Project Management Board (investor), as of July 11, 2025, the construction output reached 69/74% of the plan. Currently, at the construction site, contractors are arranging 200 construction teams, 955 machines and equipment and 2,125 personnel to carry out the construction simultaneously.
