So that Hanoi no longer has the refrain "seeing street digging means seeing Tet"

Hanoi residents are very upset when every Tet holiday, the scene of digging up roads and paving sidewalks recurs.

Urban beautification is necessary, but why choose Tet to do it?

On December 31, 2024, Lao Dong TV posted a clip titled "Hanoi people are fed up with the scene of "seeing street digging means seeing Tet", reflecting that many streets were dug up at the end of the year but the construction was slow, affecting people's travel and lives.

Before Tet, the number of people and vehicles increased, requiring open, convenient space for travel. However, the sidewalks were dug up, bricks and stones were piled up haphazardly, encroaching on the roadside.

In addition to construction materials that obstruct traffic, there are also construction holes that can be dangerous to passersby.

Tet is the peak time for people to do business, and the digging up of sidewalks affects the business activities of shops and stores. Therefore, when implementing urban renovation projects, it is necessary to consider the time when people's lives and activities are least affected.

The Chairman of the Hanoi People's Committee assigned the Department of Transport to inspect and urge construction units to return sidewalks and roads to welcome the Lunar New Year 2025. Will it be "returned" in time for the people?

Please note, the sidewalks must be restored now, so that traffic will be smooth before Tet, otherwise by Tet people will have suffered a lot and suffered a lot.

Chairman Tran Sy Thanh also requested units to strengthen inspection and supervision to ensure the quality of pavement construction of districts, towns, and project investors; strictly and publicly handle localities and construction units with poor quality, not ensuring technical standards and project life as prescribed.

The quality of sidewalk construction is something that people are very concerned about. Because every year, paving and redoing it many times is very costly and extremely wasteful.

Low quality pavement or poor construction techniques will lead to rapid deterioration of the project, making the pavement unsightly and unsightly, affecting the urban landscape. Damaged pavements require investment to be rebuilt, which is costly and affects traffic and people's daily life as analyzed above.

Therefore, let's make high-quality, high-art works. Make them once and use them for a long time, stably, so that there will be no more refrain "seeing street digging means seeing Tet".
