The Government Office issued Notice No. 125/TB-VPCP dated March 19, 2025 on the conclusion of Politburo member and Prime Minister Pham Minh Chinh - Head of the Steering Committee at the 16th Session of the State Steering Committee for important national projects and works, key to the transport sector.
According to the announcement, in addition to the achieved results, investment preparation for some projects is still slow, the appraisal time is still long, the site clearance progress has not met the required progress (Binh Duong, Hung Yen, Lang Son...), construction implementation is still slow (Can Tho, Soc Trang, Bac Ninh, Lang Son, Cao Bang).
Procedures for granting construction material mines still have many problems and inadequacies, while resources are the common property of the country. The current assignment of material mines to enterprises and individuals for management and exploitation is not suitable, causing negative impacts in the exploitation and supply of materials, affecting the progress of project implementation.
Require localities with mines to seriously implement their commitment that resources are the common property of the country, so they cannot be kept for their own localities. Absolutely do not allow corruption, embezzlement, or negativity in granting licenses for material mining.
The Prime Minister assigned Ho Chi Minh City and Tay Ninh province to speed up the preparation and approval of the Ho Chi Minh City - Moc Bai Project Feasibility Study Report, to be completed in March 2025.
Binh Phuoc and Dak Nong provinces speed up the completion of procedures to start the Gia Nghia - Chon Thanh project on April 30, 2025.

Hai Phong proactively implements the Ninh Binh - Hai Phong project through Hai Phong, promptly proposing if there are difficulties and problems.
Hanoi decides under its authority to adjust the total investment between component site clearance projects of the Ring Road 4 project to ensure that it does not exceed the preliminary total investment approved by the National Assembly; no corruption, negativity, waste.
Regarding railway projects, the Prime Minister requested localities with high-speed railway projects on the North-South axis, Lao Cai - Hanoi - Hai Phong railway projects to proactively coordinate with the Ministry of Construction to immediately implement site clearance procedures, approve resettlement projects to meet project progress.
Ho Chi Minh City urgently organizes research and implementation of urban railway projects (submarine ships) Ho Chi Minh City - Can Gio and Ho Chi Minh City to Long Thanh International Airport; calls on investors and contractors with capacity to participate in investment; report to the Prime Minister in April 2025.
